Children in England believe that Father Christmas brings presents on Christmas Eve and leave food and drink for Santa and Rudolph, usually alcohol or milk and mince pies, which are small fruit-based pies containing meats and spices. Families in England pull Christmas crackers before their Christmas dinner, which contain jokes, funny hats, and toys, and finish their meal with Christmas pudding, a type of fruitcake that is traditionally set on fire. Children hang their stockings by the fireplace so Santa can fill them with presents when he comes down the chimney.
