![]() La Befana is an old woman who delivers gifts to children in Italy on the night of January 5th, Ephiphany Eve. Like Santa, she brings candy and gifts to children who were good, and leaves coal or sticks for children who weren't. La Befana is said to sweep the floor before she leaves - symbolic of sweeping the family's problems away. - Barbara
