Nikolaus ist ein guter Mann. Nikolaus kommt zu dem Haus in der Nacht und steckt Bon-Bons und Schokolade in die Schuhe der Kinder. Nikolaustag ist am 6. Dezember, aber Nikolaus kommt am 5. Dezember in der dunklen Nacht.
Nikolaus kommt mit einem anderen Mann, er heißt Knecht Ruprecht! Knecht Ruprecht ist nicht so gut. Knecht Ruprecht gibt den bösen Kindern keine Bon-bons! Er hat einen Stock fur die bösen Kinder!

Did you know that the tradition of the Christmas tree is also from Germany? And the American fruit cake was based on the German Christstollen.
