TOMTE
  • After the meal, the "Tomte" comes. He is the
    Christmas elf who lives under floorboards of the
    hours or barn and looks after the family and
    livestock throughout the year. "Tomte" often
    brings presents, and children graciously leave a
    dish of porridge for him during the night.

Advent Candles
  • The first of the four Advent Sundays (the four
    Sundays just before Christmas) is the day of the
    year when the most Swedish people go to church.
    Many people have an "Advent candlestick" with
    four candles. On the first Advent Sunday you
    light the first candle, on the second Sunday you
    light the first and the second, and so on, which
    means that on Christmas Eve/Day the candles look
    like a flight of stairs.
