Pere Noel, or Father Christmas, is the bringer of gifts to boys and girls in France. Traditionally, children leave their shoes by the fireplace, filled with carrots and treats for Pere Noel's donkey, before they go to bed. When they wake up in the morning, Pere Noel will have exchanged the treats for presents, providing the children were well-behaved. Traditionally, the presents are small enough to fit inside of the shoes.
