In which other countries is Sinterklaas celebrated?

LookItsACupcake has provided information I see :-) It's a holiday that is celebrated here in Holland and several other countries. It's based on the tale that Sinterklaas (Saint Nick?) was a very generous man and he gave 3 poor children a gift of a golden wooden shoe. They needn't go hungry again and were no longer poor. On this holiday it's a tradition that children put there shoe out and sing holiday songs and the next morning a treat is in their shoe (if they are lucky and Sinterklaas has paid a visit). There is much more to tell but I guess there is enough to be found on wikipedia and such ;-)

That's nice to hear, people taking their traditions with them even though they moved to another part of the world. My aunt moved from Holland to the US and she teached her children both English and Dutch. All her kids can understand it, and one girl also speaks and writes it pretty well (she was more interested and wanted to be able to talk to her grandparents in the language they understand). They never pushed them into learning it, they grew up with it. The same thing goes for passing on traditions. Thanks for your response!
