History of Santa’s Reel Wheel
Since the third century, traditional Christmas stories have always depicted Santa Claus as the love, joy and gift giver who spends all year crafting toys and gifts in his workshop alongside his elven helpers. Before midnight every Christmas Eve, Santa sets out to deliver an almost infinite sack of presents to children all over the world.
Even though the story of Santa Claus has been around for hundreds of years, it wasn’t until Jewish author Robert May wrote a book in 1939 that brought the eight adorable reindeer into the picture.
Due to his diminutive size, Rudolph, the little brother of the group, was never permitted to travel with his siblings on their yearly voyage on Christmas Eve. But one year, when the night was thick with fog and none of the reindeer could see, Santa remembered Rudolph’s brilliant, shiny red nose and roused him to take the lead of the group.
Since he rescued Christmas that fateful night and helped Santa to deliver all those presents, Rudolph has remained a central character in the legends about Santa Claus, and together, they continue to capture the hearts of children everywhere.
