Whether your little one is being naughty or nice in the lead up to Christmas, Call Santa Christmas app has tailored scripts to suit all scenarios.
The origins of the classic “gift” for those who made the naughty list are murky. The tradition of giving misbehaving children lumps of fossil fuel predates the Santa we know, and is also associated with St. Nicholas, Sinterklaas, and Italy's La Befana.
Dear Santa, My name is Ethan Baker and I am 2 years old. I am so excited about Christmas this year, and I can't wait for you to come. Thank you for the toys you gave me last year. This year can I please have My First Leap Pad, a fire truck, a new sled, and a Boobah. I will have cookies and milk waiting for you.
Amid the festive celebrations, one age-old tradition stands out like, well a lump of coal in a stocking full of candy. While the image of a disappointed child unwrapping coal on Christmas morning might seem harsh, this tradition is steeped in history, cultural significance, and even a touch of pop culture magic.
Indeed, in some cultures, Santa doesn't just stop at coal, but also leaves bundles of twigs, bags of salt, and garlic and onions to naughty children- we're not sure which one we'd least want to get!

Legend has it, la Befana enters homes via the chimney and leaves small gifts placed in stockings hung from the mantel. However, for those undeserving of treats and candy, she leaves a lump of coal conveniently taken out of the fireplace as a reminder to naughty children that they must change their ways.
