HI! I just know that Father Christmas comes from the North Pole. :) I have no idea about this country.... Maybe Russia.

Father Christmas does come from the North Pole! He is sometimes called different names. Do you know what else he can be called?
It's not Russia, but that is actually a very good guess.

I think that Russia is a cold country and I think it is near North Pole. Is the Father Christmas comes from a hot country? I think we have this kind of nuts here too. Here we call the Father Christmas "Santa Clause." I will give my tongue to the cat... :) I will be waiting for the answer from others.... :) It is a nice topic... Thanks!
