It's the festive season! We are revisiting a popular episode from 2023 to give these busy mommas a break. The holidays are in full swing, but have you ever wondered how it all began? Where did Santa come from? Did you know that there is a darker side to our beloved holiday traditions? Today we are going back in time to explore the inspiration for Jolly Ol’ St. Nick and his evil counterpart, Krampus! Let’s kick off this season with a little holiday history. For many, they weren’t worried about coal in their stocking. They had to worry about beatings, death, and eternal damnation. Christmas has come a long way! Happy Holidays Lab Rats!
