Last week I was in Ayla's classroom to work with the children on a 'Sinterklaas Project'.
First I told the kids about Sinterklaas and his 'Zwarte Pieten' and after that we worked in small groups on making pepernoten. Pepernoten are some kind of small cinnamon cookies / candy that the 'zwarte pieten' usually hand out to the children when they come to Holland.
We made the dough first.....a fun and messy activity.... than all the kids got a piece of the dough and made a bunch of small balls and put those on the cooking plate. The plates went into the oven, baked for about 20 minutes and voila...the pepernoten were ready for consumption!
