Saint Nicholas Around the World Mini Book

Read one country a day in the week before December 6 and find each country on a map. Children finish the last page with their own idea.

Eight pages after the cover. A title page with a name line says Saint Nicholas Day is December 6. Six country pages follow, The Netherlands, Germany, Belgium, Poland, Austria and The United States, each with a short paragraph about the custom and the name used there, such as Sinterklaas, Nikolaus or Mikołaj. The last page, How I Would Celebrate, has a box to draw and lines to finish a sentence.

Yes. We made it for 1st Grade to 3rd Grade holiday activities, and it works the same at home or at school. Families print it for one child and keep it where they will use it every day. Teachers print a copy per student or one for the whole room, whichever the day needs.

3 printable resources, all free to preview. There are 16 Saint Nicholas Day resources in all, from Preschool to 5th Grade, gathered on our Saint Nicholas Day activities page. Downloads are included with a ClassWeekly free trial, and every page prints on standard 8.5 x 11 paper.

These are written for 1st Grade to 3rd Grade students, roughly ages 6-9. Many teachers also use them a grade up for review or a grade down as an extension, so use the preview to judge the fit for a particular child.

Yes. Nothing here assumes a classroom of 25, so they work the same one-to-one at the kitchen table as they do in a 1st Grade to 3rd Grade classroom, a learning center, or a tutoring session.
