Gifts from St. Basil, traditionally given on January 1st in many cultures, should be opened on that day to celebrate the feast of St. Basil and the New Year. In some traditions, families may choose to open gifts during a gathering or after attending a church service. The act of gift-giving symbolizes goodwill and blessings for the coming year.
In Greece, the gift giver is Saint Basil (Agios Vasilis) who brings gifts to children on New Year's Day, which is also known as St. Basil's Day. Children traditionally receive gifts and blessings from Saint Basil, while families share a special bread called Vasilopita with a hidden coin inside as part of the celebration.
