Fifty (50) children brought their parents, grandparents, aunts and uncles to the Dekker Huis / Zeeland Museum on Saturday, the third of December. They visited with Sinterklaas from 10:00 am to noon and heard the story about how Dutch children celebrate Christmas in the Netherlands.

Each child also had the opportunity to:

• Play I SPY throughout the museum and win a "gold coin"
• Decorate a cookie in the original Dekker Huis kitchen
• Make a Christmas tree ornament at the large table in the research room
• Try on wooden shoes in the Log Cabin
• Take home a goodie bag !

By the way, there is a picture of a baby who thinks that Sinterklaas sounds just like his great-grandfather. Don't tell anyone...great-grandpa IS the man of the hour   :-)
