Christmas in the Netherlands

The most important day is in December the 5th that's the night that Saint Nickolas brings their presents.

Sinterklaas has helpers called Zwarte Pieten  (Black peters)
and the children are told that these helpers keep a record of every good and bad thing they have done over the year. So, if they have been very well behaved they might expect to get lots of presents.
If they are very bad the Black peters will put them in a sack and take them away for a year to Spain where they believe St Nicholas lives. From there he visits Holland every year on December the 5th .
Children believe that he rides a horse on the roofs of houses and that Black peters climb down the chimney and deliver gifts.

Many people have parties on December the 5th where they share special food and play games 
Christmas day is usually a quiet family day with church and family meal.

In Dutch merry Christmas is #Prettig Kerstfeest #
