Sinterklaas!
In my little country we celebrate every year on 5 December Sinterklaas. He is (a sacred) from Spain and on December 5th it's his "birthday" and then everyone gets gifts.
He gets help from zwarte pieten and every night he go to every childs house and put gifts in there shoes. Yes, Sinterklaas was before the Coke Santaclaus. And it's not only a feast day in the Netherlands but also in Belgium, where it is just a little different. Perhaps this is weird to imagine but I found it interesting to tell you anything about the Dutch culture. Maybe you think now we're crazy.. but allright that doesn't stop us for celebrating it.
