   Babushka — The Gift Giver
   In Russia, the concept of Santa Claus is a bit different from other countries of the world. In the country, the legendary gift-giver is known as ‘Babushka’. According to the legends, Babushka is a grandmother, who refused to accompany the Three Wise Men to visit Baby Jesus Christ. When Babushka felt guilty of her deed, she took a basket full of gifts and set her trail to visit Baby Jesus Christ. However, due to her refusal to accompany the Three Wise Men, she failed to find Jesus Christ anywhere. As a result, she decided to leave a present at the doorsteps of every house in Russia, during the festive season of Christmas, every year.

   В своё время был очень интересный топик на эту тему. Liska писала разъяснения по этому поводу, но после падения форума эту темку не могу найти, а жаль.

   Похоже родители мне что-то недоговаривали в детстве

   ЗЫ. Да, оригинальная теория. Действительно интересно, что же они имели в виду? Не с потолка же они это взяли.
