On 5 December Sinterklaas celebrates his birthday. This Dutch special day is filled with traditions: presents, poems, songs and (very important) little spicy cookies: ‘Pepernoten’! Or should we call them ‘kruidnoten’? Join Neeltje from your kitchen for an interactive cooking class and learn all about the Dutch Sinterklaas traditions while baking you own pepernoten. While your pepernoten are in the oven, Myrte will guide you through a few Dutch Sinterklaas songs.

All levels are welcome to join and this class is just €2,50, but you need to do 2 things:
