Traditionally, small gifts like chocolate coins, homemade sweets, and toys were placed in Christmas stockings. Stockings originated from the tradition of children in England hanging their stockings near the fireplace on Christmas Eve in anticipation of gifts from Father Christmas. The history of the Christmas stocking dates back to 1823 when Clement Clarke Moore wrote "'Twas the Night Before Christmas" describing stockings hung near the fireplace awaiting gifts from Santa Claus. Instructions are provided on how to make a felt Christmas stocking including cutting out the stocking shape, gluing the sides together, adding a white felt trim, and decorating.

3. What do you put inside a Christmas
stocking?
Traditionally, stocking fillers were a range of small and cheap gifts which
were fun. A satsuma was always put at the bottom of a stocking but
whatever went on top varied. These little gifts could be chocolate coins,
homemade sweets, jams, fake jewelry or tiny toys. Poorer, less fortunate
people would make their own gifts like cloth-peg dolls and paper windmills.
However nowadays people like to put whatever they want into a stocking.
Things of all shapes and sizes get thrown into the sock that actually had
a very interesting history.

4. El historio...
As far back as 1823, when Clement Clarke Moore (or possibly
Henry Livingston Jr.) wrote “A Visit From Saint Nicholas,”
stockings were hung near the fireplace, awaiting a visit from
Santa Claus. They have been part of our Christmas tradition
for years. Parents used to say to their children that if they
were naughty, Santa Claus would put coal inside their stocking
instead of presents.
