The legend says that Santa Claus has a book that keeps track of the naughty and nice children. Santa Claus keeps track of every children's attitude and personality. With that being said, "Just be good, for goodness sake's".
Santa traditionally keeps lists of the naughty and the nice children. Those on the naughty list receive coal. Those on the nice list receive presents.
Good children get gifts and naughty one a chunk of coal.
No, Saint Nickolas (or Santa) brings presents (though some people believe that the Christ child does this). The German "Belsnickel" is a counterpart to Santa and is actually the one believed to be the disciplinarian, taking children who have been naughty or sometimes merely leaving lumps of coal and switches.
If he does, he is one weird dude, but I don't think he does.
Traditionally, Santa gives naughty people lumps of coal.
In Italy, Santa's helpers are known as "La Befana." She is a kind, old witch who delivers gifts to children on the night of January 5th, known as the Epiphany. Unlike Santa Claus, who visits on Christmas, La Befana is celebrated for her role in the holiday season, bringing sweets to good children and coal to those who are naughty.
Traditionally, Santa Clause gives gifts of toys, fruit and/or nuts to good children, while naughty ones get lumps of coal.
