Christine and Etty from Dutchcare showing Saint Nicolaus Puppets: Sint, Pete and the gray horse.
Every year at the beginning of December the Dutch are celebrating the birthday of Sinterklaas or Saint Nicolaus.
Sinterklaas is said to have originated from St. Nicolaus, the Bishop of Mira, Turkey,
who was a righteous dude and did good stuff for children.
The Santa Claus concept has originated from Saint Nicolaus.
Saint Nicolaus is also celebrated in Belgium, Nord of France and Eastern Europe
