December the 6th - Celebrating St Nicholas Day in Hungary

Panna and her mum have made St Nicholas cookies to share with us and to celebrate this special day in the Hungarian culture. They put the cookies into mini muffins for us. They look so delicious.
Thank you, Panna and Kata. We really appreciate you sharing your traditions with us so we can learn more about your country.
 
St. Nicholas (Mikulás) of Myra is a popular Christian Saint among children across Europe because of his reputation as a bringer of gifts. Both the North American Santa Claus and the British Father Christmas are legendary figures whose attributes derive from the myths surrounding St. Nicholas.
