Anybody ever heard of the Christmas time story of the "Head Wonk"?

Question

It was a cute little Christmas story my Grandmother would tell us when we were little. We would set our shoes out at the foot of the bed on the three nights before Christmas, and in the morning there would be quarters and candy in them.. She used to say the Head Wonk would come around every year before Santa and check up on the good kids, or something to that effect. Has anybody else heard this story? If so, do you know the full fable? The origins of it? Or was it truly unique to my family?

Thanks for listening. :-)

Answer 1

Personally I've never heard of "Head Wonk" but what you describe sounds very similar to the origins of the Saint Nicholas stories.

Did you know that in Spain children wait until January 6th for their Christmas presents. Children put shoes by the front door to get their gifts which are brought by the Three Wise Men.

Hope this helped, I think unique family traditions are great!
