December 5 is a big day for Dutch kids. It's Sinterklaas' birthday and the kids gets lots of presents....If they have been good.
At the NIS December 5 is a festive day as well. Sinterklaas and his helpers come to school and there is an all school assembly with performances from the kids. After this Sinterklaas will visit the classrooms and the kids get a present and pepernoten ( which are a special kind of small ginger bread cookies))
Ayla had a great day! Initially she was pretty nervous and a bit scared, but after a while she was very brave . She danced, sang and even sat on Sinterklaas' lap. ( It only took a handful of pepernoten to bribe her in to this.)
