Sinterklaas evening
Last night, on December 5th, we celebrated Saint Nicholas and it was a big hit. We played the dice-saint Nicholas game with seven people: William, Sheri, Karen, Eric, Jami, Mike and myself. First William and I had to explain who Saint Nicholas is and what the feast is all about. That isn’t an easy task, especially the black peters raised a lot of questions. After that we sang some traditional saint nicholas songs. I found the lyrics in english so everybody could sing along. William made a little film of that:

We had a lot of fun during the game and everybody was very happy with the presents in the end.

The gingerbread and other snacks were very popular as well…

We decided to make it an annual tradition!
