SinterKlaas

This week we have been exploring symbols through holiday traditions and customs.  Today I brought two special guests (my nieces) to help with our Dutch custom of celebrating Sinterklaas.   The wooden shoes or klompen play an important role.   The Superheroes were able to create their own model of klompen and decorate with symbols that were meaningful to them.  Next, we had to add hay and carrots for Sinterklaas' witte paard (white horse).  Just in case he decided to come and visit!
