One of our family's favorite holiday traditions is celebrating Mikulas Day: on the morning of December 6th, when the Hungarian Santa (a.k.a. St. Nicholas) visits children and leaves his gifts.
Just like my twin brother and I did when we were growing up (never mind, just how long ago it was) my kids would clean their shoes on the night of December 5th and leave them near the front door.
Not unlike the American tradition of hanging stockings by the fireplace.
IF YOU WERE GOOD: then Mikulas would fill your shoes with candy treats and chocolate goodies.
IF YOU WERE NAUGHTY: well, I still remember one particular morning when their uncle was surprised to find a bag of coal in his shoes and how my parents seemed very pleased with themselves, that year.
Now that my kids are older, it warms my heart whenever they talk about continuing this tradition when they are parents and, just so you know, the threat of grounding them during the holidays works much better ;)
