Christmas stockings tradition comes from this story: A poor man with three daughters couldn't afford the dowry to have them married. One night, St. Nicholas dropped a bag of gold down the man's chimney so that his oldest daughter would be able to get married, and the bag fell into a stocking that was drying by the fire. ?Subscribe For More Amazing Facts You Didn’t Know About https://www.youtube.com/@imfactedup?sub_confirmation=1 ???20 UNKNOWN?CHRISTMAS FACTS You Never Knew BEFORE PART 1 ?https://tinyurl.com/2dsdz23u ???20 UNKNOWN?CHRISTMAS FACTS You Never Knew BEFORE PART 2 ?https://tinyurl.com/3sewnb9j ?Get Paid To Use Facebook, Twitter, and YouTube ➜https://tinyurl.com/4wz47r6a ?Get Paid To Review Apps On Your Phone ➜https://tinyurl.com/y6vyrdzt ??People in Iceland will often exchange books on Christmas Eve ?https://tinyurl.com/2p8amx82 ??Did you know that Rockin' Around the Christmas Tree was recorded by a 13Y.O child? ?https://tinyurl.com/7xc2bukt ??Did you know that Christmas pudding wasn’t always like a cake? ?https://tinyurl.com/3453dkxd ??❗❗Silent Night is the most recorded song⁉️ ?https://tinyurl.com/42th2pk9 The practice was first mentioned in 1823, in a Clement Clarke Moore poem, A Visit from Saint Nicholas (also known by its first line, ‘Twas the Night Before Christmas). Until then, Santa Claus had always been depicted as a disciplinarian, not the jolly, twinkly-eyed man with eight reindeer, we know and love today. Clarke Moore described a jovial figure that could magically visit children’s homes via the chimney, leaving presents in the stockings he found hanging there. It’s thought the legend of the original Christmas sock dates back centuries. The story goes that a widowed father was struggling to make ends meet, and was concerned it would affect his three daughters’ marriage prospects. St Nicholas (the Christian bishop Santa Claus is based on) heard about their plight and one night, he emptied gold coins from the chimney, which fell into the girls’ stockings that were drying by the fire. Upon waking in the morning, the family was overjoyed by this Christmas miracle. Perhaps that’s why chocolate coins are a firm favorite in today’s stockings. Before it was a Christmas tradition, children would hang their own stockings on St Nick’s patron saint day of 19 December, in the hope he would leave them a gift. Naughty children were warned they may find lumps of coal, rather than presents, waiting for them there. That’s inspired by Italian folklore, where Befana (an elderly woman said to be searching the country for the three wise men and baby Jesus) would leave sweets for the good children and coal for the rest on Epiphany Eve (5 January). She’s also sometimes known as the Christmas Witch. Of course today there is a myriad of different stockings available, in all colors and sizes. Before they were available to buy, children would simply hang their own socks (or Dad’s – the bigger, the better, after all) over the mantel and hope Santa would fill them by morning. It was also common to make your own Christmas stockings at home, which would often be personalized so Father Christmas knew which presents to leave where.
