One year, Santa was overwhelmed with all the children on the naughty list. His sleigh could not carry all the coal he needed to deliver, plus the toys. He asked his cousin, Noclaus, to help him with the deliveries. In the end, that was the only year Santa needed his cousin’s help. The naughty list was destroyed and the children changed their behavior to be on the nice list the following years.Right before Christmas one year, my grandchildren were acting up. I told them Noclaus would be coming to their house instead of Santa. I just made up the story on the spot, that Noclaus brings coal instead of toys. Noclaus somehow became a part of our Christmas. My daughter and I decided to make a story around the character. That is how Noclause came about.
