GNOMES

THE LEGEND OF THE CHRISTMAS GNOME
Santa Claus might be one of the most important people celebrated at Christmas for us in the Western world, but Scandinavian locals believe that it’s still gnomes and elves that do the majority of the work.
The Norwegian belief in Scandinavian Christmas gnomes is that they help to guard the animals throughout the year.
You get a bowl of porridge ready for your Scandinavian gnome on Christmas Eve, and hope they would become your friend. If you don’t give the gnome their porridge, they might get upset and start playing pranks on you and your family. 
Christmas gnomes in Norway visit homes on Christmas Eve, bringing gifts to the children of the household. Some families set an extra place at the table for the gnome — just in case the creature decides to join them.
