St. Nicholas Day

In Germany, Nikolaus is usually celebrated on a small scale. Children put a boot called Nikolaus-Stiefel outside the front door on the night of December 5 to December 6. St. Nicholas fills the boots with fruit, nuts, small gifts and sweets. At the same time he checks up on the children to see if they were good, polite, and helpful the last year. If the were not, they will have a tree branch in their boots instead.
