TOMTE

• After the meal, the "Tomte" comes. He is the
  Christmas elf who lives under floorboards of the
  hours or barn and looks after the family and
  livestock throughout the year. "Tomte" often
  brings presents, and children graciously leave a
  dish of porridge for him during the night.

Advent Candles

• The first of the four Advent Sundays (the four
  Sundays just before Christmas) is the day of the
  year when the most Swedish people go to church.
  Many people have an "Advent candlestick" with
  four candles. On the first Advent Sunday you
  light the first candle, on the second Sunday you
  light the first and the second, and so on, which
  means that on Christmas Eve/Day the candles look
  like a flight of stairs.
