We had Sinter Klaas on Saturday, Dec. 5th. It is a big deal for our family. We met at my Mom's place. If you own a pair of wooden shoes, you wear them there.
Sometimes the little shoes are passed down to the younger ones.
We have a slide show that my brother David and myself prepared. Our Mom narrates the little program. This year my brother added some words to songs for us to sing. One of our relatives in Holland, Jan Van Leer, sent Mom a CD with Sinter Klaas songs on it. It was a great addition.
After the slide show all the shoes are lined up, people "sleep and then wake up" to find what Sinter Klaas has brought them.
Mom makes her own chocolate letters, and the kids love them!
Thanks for all the hard work; the chocolate letters, the peppernotten, the little toys for the younger ones, and the fruits It is a fun time for us all.
