12/8/14: Happy Belated St. Nicholas Day!

Belated Happy St. Nicholas Day!  In the Western Christian calendar the feast day of St Nicholas is observed on December 6th.  Today this day is most widely celebrated in Europe, and different countries have their own way of celebrating on this special day.  In some countries, including Germany and the Netherlands, children will leave out an empty shoe the night before for St Nicholas to fill with presents and sweets.  Your students can learn more about Christmas traditions from around the world with my original play Where in the World is the Spirit of Christmas?
Written with 21 parts, Detective John T. Brown travels the world to solve the Spirit of Christmas. Along the way he meets children from Israel, Germany, the Netherlands, Poland, Mexico and Sweden in hopes of finding the Grinch who is missing the holiday spirit. Come and see how others celebrate this holiday and how the Grinch learned that Christmas is really more than things. Please also be sure to check out my my full selection of original holiday plays at my Teachers Pay Teachers store.
