Santa Claus, Sinterklaas, Father Christmas and Saint Nicholas are just a few variations of the name of that round-bellied guy with a long white beard, in a red coat trimmed with white fur. Most kids know him as the guy who travels all over the world, giving away presents on Christmas Day.

"Santa has, however, always been interested to hear how Christmas is celebrated in other countries, and respects these different customs. But if you ask him what's best of all about Christmas, he never hesitates to reply - the children. Looking after the world's children and making sure they're not naughty is, in the opinion of this Good Will Ambassador, one of the most important things in the world," says the official Santa Claus website.

You can explain the meaning of Christmas and about Santa Claus to your child, based on your own cultural beliefs and religion.

At the same time, you can also use this time to bond with your child by creating several opportunities of doing something together that is creative and fun.

Together, you can make your own gingerbread house. You can also choose and make your own decorations for the house. Put on your brave mask and watch that Christmas movie together.

Believe me, with kids around, there will be no Bah Hambugs in your home.
