    4. Christmas gifts in Romania 

    The old Romanian tradition says that there was in old man who used to make toys and then he gave them to the poor children to enjoy themselves on Christmas. THen , God seeing his goodness .He gave him magic powers to be able to give presents to all the children in the world and to be able to travel for a wholw night around the whole world. In one way , We can say that the presents for this Holiday begin to be received by the children on Saint Nicholas Day on the 6 th of december when children receive sweets , fruits ,other presents but also sticks if they weren”t good till that day.
