Sox have been part of the family Christmas festivities for many years. An average of Christmas is simply a sock or half-empty bag in a generally hangs on Christmas Eve. Popular legends try to explain the history of this tradition. The socks are hung from Santa Claus to fill with small toys, candy, fruit, money or other small gifts. There are no written records of the origin of this tradition. Why not create your own family Christmas legend population?

A legend with many different variants tells the story of how he lived a poor man with three beautiful daughters. This man, allegedly concerned about how their daughters would be just after his death because he had no money to get married. In St. Nicholas, passed through the village where they lived heard about the poor and their beautiful daughters. St. Nicholas decided to help, but I knew the old man probably does not want to accept their help, so went his way in secret.

At night she slipped through your chimney with three bags of gold coins, one for each daughter. Upon entering his room at the front, began looking for a place to leave bags of coins when she suddenly realized "average" from the three girls that are on the mantel to dry. San Nicolas thought this was the perfect place to leave their gifts and put a bag in each planting. He quickly fell back up the chimney and away at night to their next stop.

The next morning, girls and his father woke up early to find the bags of gold coins stored in your stockings. They were full of joy, were able to marry and live happily ever after. This legend is one of several that lead to the custom of hanging stockings of children awaiting gifts from Saint Nicholas. Tradition began in European countries where children use a pair of socks every day. Finally, thousands and thousands of socks were created especially for this tradition Christmas.
