He is here! Sinterklaas has arrived in Holland! He made it all the way from Spain on his boat. Sinterklaas day is celebrated on December 5 but Sinterklaas arrives in Holland and our city of Delft on November 20th. On the 5th of December is when you give each other gifts and also write a poem to go with your gift. We are looking forward to starting this fun tradition with Kees!
Looking for Sinterklaas.....
I think the whole city came out to greet Sinterklaas today! It was packed! Kees got a front seat to the action in his stroller and enjoyed every moment!
Zwarte Piet (Black Piet) Sinterkaas' helper gives little cookies called pepernoten to all of the kids. Kees could not believe that cookies where being piling up on his lap! He held them in his hand for a long time and kept saying, "cookie, cookie!" He wasn't so sure of black face paint on black Piet but once he realized that he was the one giving out the cookies he was okay with him.
Thumbs up from Sinterklaas! Let the Christmas season begin!!
