So... in Germany, it's always the “Christkind” who comes at Christmas, not Santa Claus. When I was young, around 5 years old, my sister and I always had to leave the family and the Christmas tree on Christmas Eve and go to our room because the “Christkind” was coming to distribute the presents. Then my parents would ring a bell to signal that we could come downstairs because the Christ Child had been there and left again. That's one of my fondest memories, and when I have children of my own, I want to continue this tradition.
