As Christianity spread, St. Nicholas image began to change. Russias Dedt Mo-roz, or Father Ice and the Norse god Odin and even the old Roman deity Saturn had white beards and the power to fly through the air or magically appear. As the centuries ground along, these attributes were melded with the myths surrounding the good St. Nicholas. Communication back then wasnt what it is today so there were many different versions of St. Nicholas. In many of these a punisher known variously as Knecht Rupert, Ru Claus, Pelznickel, Aschenklaus and Black Pete accompanied the good saint. This sinister sidekick was on the lookout for children that misbehaved. Legend has it that Black Pete would abduct bad children or (more often) leave a birch switch behind as a hint of their fate if the bad behavior continued. Most often, St. Nicholas intervened, saving even naughty children from Black Pete, teaching them that they could earn another chance if they would mend their ways. Eventually the evil accomplice was dropped leaving it up to St. Nicholas to be the sole judge of whether a child was naughty or nice and the birch switch was replaced with a lump of coal.

So, just prior to his journey across the Atlantic to the New World, St. Nicholas had become a red robed, white bearded figure who flew on a white horse to deliver gifts to good children overnight during the Christmas Holy Days. In the early days of New York, the Dutch name Sante Klaus was adopted by more recent English colonists as Santa Claus. The name stuck and immigrants of many backgrounds adopted him and carried his name west as America was explored.

Washington Irving is credited with widening Santa Claus popularity and putting him in a cart that flew through the air. The writings of Irving were certainly known by Henry Livingston who penned the famous poem An Account of a Visit from Saint Nicholas that he recited to his children one Christmas. Later, in 1822, the poem was published for the first time in the Troy Sentinel. A professor of divinity, Dr Clement Moore, claimed authorship and a controversy rages to this day over who actually wrote the poem. Regardless, the poem became quite popular and did wonders for the reputation of Santa Claus. It gave us a sleigh pulled by reindeer that all had names and reinforced the idea that Santa entered through the chimney. The bishops robes were gone; replaced by a furry suit. Santa was now jolly and corpulent but small.

This thoroughly American rendition of St Nicholas was hugely popular and the poem was (and is still) repeated every Christmas Eve in nearly every American home.

During the dark days of the Civil War, Harpers Weekly published numerous sto-ries about Santa Claus illustrated by a German immigrant, Thomas Nast. The characteristics Santa Claus were no longer left up to the imagination. Nasts illustrations unified and solidi-fied popular ideas of what Santa looked like and how he acted. He was a Jolly Old Elf.

Today we think of Santa Claus as a much larger personage. This came about through an advertising campaign conducted during the early days of popular color publica-tions. The Coca-Cola Company sponsored an ad campaign during Prohibition that featured Santa as a larger version of the elf. Billboards and magazine images of this new Santa blazed their way into the popular consciousness and have remained ever since. Santas favorite reindeer Rudolph was introduced through another popular ad campaign staged by Montgomery Ward in 1939.

Through all the changes St. Nick has undergone, he remains in our hearts as our companion at Christmas. Whether Saint or Santa, we can count on him to remind us that Christmas is a time for giving and for children. Every effort must be made to make a magi-cal visit possible for every child.... especially the less fortunate. Above all else, this is the legacy of Saint Nicholas. Please, give him a hand.

Did you know?Many Christmas traditions are older than some celebrants might think. The tradition of lighting up a Christmas tree, for example, dates back to the days before Christmas lights. Be-fore electric-powered twinkle lights were invented and even before electricity was discovered, people used actual candles to adorn the Christmas tree. As one can imagine, having an open flame next to a dried-out tree was risky, so it was cus-tomary to keep a bucket of water next to the tree in the case of fire. As if fire wasnt enough, the tinsel used to decorate trees was made from strips of silver and even lead -- something that is now known to be a health hazard to adults and children alike. Although weve come a long way since candles and lead, even now trees that are overly dry and decorated with lights that have frayed wires can just as easily lead to fires. Plus, plastic tinsel can be a choking hazard for children and pets. One Christmas staple that has lost its status as a safety hazard is the poinsettia plant. It has long been thought that poinsettias are poisonous to people and animals. While there is some toxicity to the plant, it would require the ingestion of hundreds of leaves to get a toxic dose of a plants poison.

Do good by donating older giftsThe holiday season is one firmly ensconced in the tradi-tion of exchanging gifts. To address storage issues, some families choose to make charitable donations of some of their past holiday finery in preparation for the arrival of new gifts and goodies.

The average person has many belongings he or she may not need. According to the Self Storage Association, there are 2.3 billion square feet des-ignated to self-storage space in the United States, and one out of every 10 households in the country rents a unit. Many financial analysts say that the self-storage industry is essen-tially recession-proof. Thats because once a person moves items into storage, theyre not likely to move it out anytime soon.

Many of the items relegated to self-storage units across the nation could be holiday gifts from years past. But rather than store items that will never see the light of day, why not help a good cause and donate such items to charity?

Make it a tradition

Families can make donating items prior to the holidays a tradition so that it is something that everyone anticipates and looks forward to.

Much as you would decorate the home or shop for fancy holiday clothing, you can set aside a day for sorting through

infrequently used items and preparing them for donation. Doing so can teach children the benefits of generosity, which often goes hand-in-hand with the season.

Work with an organization

There are certain organiza-tions that gather used or new toys and other items to give to the less fortunate. Begin with

churches and synagogues and inquire if they sponsor or host a collection program. Schools also may hold item swaps to help raise money for parent-teacher associations or to do-nate to charities.

If you cannot find an organiza-

tion that serves as the middle-man for donations, take it upon yourself to solicit safe houses, hospitals, veteran groups and more to see if they will accept your items.

Set limits on new gifts

Encourage family members to give back while gifting as well. While one or two new items will be appreciated, you may

want to specify that donations to charities that you support, or helping to fund extracurricular activities, is your preference.

Organize storage spaces

Once clutter has been re-moved, use this opportunity to install new closet organizers,

storage bins, shelving, and any other methods of orga-nization that you prefer. Sort and categorize existing toys and items so that new ones can be added neatly.

Involve children in the do-nation process

When donating items, bring the kids along so they can see how their former toys and

books will be put to use by other children who may not have the same advantages. It will serve as a good lesson and may help children walk away with a heartwarming experience.

Everyone wants to get the perfect gifts for people on their holiday shopping lists. Shopping for a child with special needs can make gift-giving a bit more difficult. After all, buyers want to ensure the gift is practical as well as thought-ful. However, there are many great gift ideas for special needs children.

Buying gifts for kids with a disability or other special needs make take a little more time, but shoppers who consider a childs developmental readiness as well as personal interests can still find the perfect gift.

* Consult with parents and caregivers. Parents often know best when it comes to their own children and will make the most reliable source as to which gifts to buy for special needs children. Parents may have a list of items a therapist or teacher has suggested, and these learning tools could make

Holiday giving for special needs childrengood gifts, particularly if parents own budgets are stretched. If youd like to make the gift a surprise for everyone involved, go directly to a therapist or teacher and ask for suggestions. There may be classroom aides that can be bought to continue the learning experience at home.

* Assess developmental level. When it comes to special needs children, age does not always dictate the proper developmental level. A pre-teen with special needs may not be on the same level academically and socially as his or her peers, while some special needs children may be more developed in a particular area than other special needs kids their age. Assess a childs de-velopmental level to help you select toys that he or she can play with. For example, a nonverbal child with autism who likes marine life may benefit from a colorful picture book where he or she can point to the animals.

* Think about interests. Most children gravitate to certain types of toys and have specific interests when it comes to play. A music lover may enjoy a learners guitar or keyboard. Those who like to build would probably like a Lego(R) or Mega Bloks(R) set that can be transformed into cars, trucks or even space stations. Most children benefit from art sets where they can explore their creativity and also master greater dexterity and imaginative thinking.

* Consider making a financial donation. Some children with special needs require the use of specialized equipment, such as braces or wheelchairs. Such equipment can be expensive, and the childs family might benefit from a financial gift. A monetary gift to be put toward medical supplies, travel, gear, or even a charitable donation to an association would make fine gifts.

Special needs children are just like others in that they look forward to the bounty of holiday gifts. Choosing presents that pertain to their interests, needs and developmental readiness can ensure that this holiday season is a happy one.

While the holiday season is a time of joy, giving and re-ligious reflection, it also can be a time of excess. Holiday parties, meals brimming with more food than the average person can consume, wrap-ping paper tossed aside after minimal usage, and shoppers venturing for miles in cars in search of presents can all prove wasteful.

For the environmentally con-scious, the holiday season is a great opportunity to put your ideals to use. Although it may seem like a challenging task, going green for the holidays is easier than you might think.

* Get a live Christmas tree. Christmas trees are planted

Easy ways to be green for the holidaysexpressly for the purpose of being cut down and turned into holiday decor. Responsible tree farms will plant many more trees than is needed for the purpose of Christmas trees. Be a good steward for the environ-ment and recycle your tree once the holidays are over. Some re-cycling centers will pick them up for free or a small fee.

* Consider giving food as a gift. Food is consumable, doesnt take up space, and lo-cally grown food does not require shipping or wasteful packaging. Its an ideal gift for those who already have every-thing.

* Cut back on holiday decor.

Most people love showcasing their Christmas spirit with dec-orations. However, many deco-rative products are produced overseas and shipped over to North America on large vessels that require a lot of fuel. Think about reducing your decora-tions or replacing plastic and metal decorations for all-natu-ral options. Branches of holly or twigs tied with ribbon to form a natural wreath are just as decorative as store-bought plastic decorations.

* Dont leave lights on for ex-tended periods of time. Homes and businesses bedecked in holiday lights are staples of the season. However, extra lights, inflatable lawn Santas

and other accessories consume substantial amounts of energy. Instead of leaving lights and other decorative items running for hours each night, turn them off after a little while to save energy.

* Donate money in lieu of gifts. Choose environmentally responsible charities and do-nate funds to their efforts in the name of people who do not need another package of paja-mas.

* Use decomposable shipping peanuts. Shipping peanuts are environmentally friendly pack-

ing products that are made from cornstarch. When they come in contact with water, they dis-solve -- making for easy clean-up and less trash.

* Donate unused gifts. Nearly everyone gets an unwanted gift come the holiday season. Instead of putting items in the trash or taking them back to the store, donate gifts youll never use to a charity or a thrift shop.

* Wrap gifts with wrapping pa-per alternatives. Wrapping pa-per is a luxury item and one that tends to be wasteful. There are many items around the house

that can be recycled into deco-rative gift wrap. Sew scraps of fabric together for a patchwork bag or use glossy photos from a fashion magazine to papier mache a box. When you think creatively, youre bound to come up with some very us-able and eco-friendly ideas.

Although many people tend to go overboard for the holidays, getting into the holiday spirit does not have to be unfriendly to the environment.
