One of the great saint during the advent time is St Nicholas. It was a great day for children to think about this great saint who helped many people, wonder worker, on the day of baptism he jumped out and stood straight thrice reminding Holy Trinity(life of St Nicholas podcast). Instead of traditional way of packing with shoes, we made a treat bag for each child in our family filled with candy, Gold coins and some books and CD.Many interesting stuffs are found in St Nicholas center. Children did some puzzles and tried to make some ginger bread cookies. We listened to the story of St Nicholas.
So what are things inside the bag
Chocoloate gold coins to show the the gold coins given to the three girls.
Candy canes to represent the crozier/staff which bishop carries.
Orange also remind the gold coins.
Books & movies regarding St Nicholas
