Papá Noel, Santa Claus Explanation: Papá Noel es la mejor opción, creo yo. San Nicolás, se celebra en algunos países el 6 de diciembre. Hay un pequeño desfile y regalos menores para los niños (dulces y cosas pequeñas). En Los Países Bajos es Sinterklaas, por ejemplo. En España se impone la tradición de dar los regalos en Nochebuena por conveniencia de fechas y los trae Santa Claus o Papá Noel. Espero que sirva...	JaviLaw
