As you might know, Santa Claus is derived from Saint Nicholas, and are known to be the same person, except that Saint Nicholas was the original present giver, and Sata Claus is more the commercial Christmas salesperson.Saint Nicholas did indeed give presents to children, often in the form of things to eat. Saint Nicholas also helped maidens with their dowries, saved schoolboys and generally behaved like a saint. No matter in what form, the spirit of Christmas lives on.
Father Christmas traditionally gives naughty children coal as a symbolic way to encourage good behavior. It is meant to serve as a reminder that their actions have consequences and to motivate them to be better in the future.
Traditionally Coal, but when I was a kid he would just fill your stocking with ashes from the fireplace. My wife grew up in Texas and there he would leave switches (for punishing naughty children).
Not always. Coal is harder to find these days. Sometimes the bad children get presents so that they still know that they are loved and they don't get worse... but of course we should all try to be good.
It is believed he gives the bad children coal for Christmas and not gifts.

What are some of the French beliefs for Christmas?
During Christmas night, le Père Noël (literally Father Christmas, or Santa for Americans) will visit homes. He used to come down the chimney, but not necessarily so. Children leave a pair of their shoes next to the chimney, or under the Christmas tree, to mark the place where he will (if they have been nice) leave presents for them. For naughty children, he has a replacement, le Père Fouettard, (the Whipping guy), who can give out a little flogging or a spank instead of a nice present. I've always been nice, so I have never met him.
