A couple of European guests checked into your *****hotel yesterday, December 5.
Knowing the 6th of December is a day celebrated by Europeans, especially loved by kids, you chat with the guests about St.Niklas – the guests are overwhelmed and enthusiastic.
Kids will find surpises at the door of their room.
St. Nicholas Day is celebrated on December 6th. It honors St. Nicholas, a kind man who helped people, especially children. On the night of December 5th, children put their shoes or boots by the door. In the morning, they find small gifts like chocolates, fruits, and nuts. This is because St. Nicholas is believed to visit and leave treats for good children.
In some places, St. Nicholas is seen with a helper called Krampus, who warns children to be good or they won’t get gifts. Kids enjoy hearing stories about St. Nicholas. One story is about him secretly helping a poor family so the daughters could get married.
Children love this day because it feels magical. It is a fun tradition that starts the Christmas season, with gifts, stories, and excitement. St. Nicholas Day is a time for joy and kindness, making it a special day for children.
