A Special Visit from Saint Nicholas to the Crèche Les Mousquetaires in Leudelange

At the beginning of December, the holiday spirit settles in Leudelange and everywhere in Luxembourg, with the preparations for Advent. Among the most anticipated traditions, the celebration of Saint Nicholas occupies a special place in the hearts of children. This year, Saint Nicholas honored us with an early visit to the Crèche Les Mousquetaires , our crèche located in Leudelange, for a magical day full of discoveries and smiles.

Saint Nicholas: A Dear Tradition in Luxembourg

In Luxembourg, Saint Nicholas, or "De Kleeschen," is an emblematic figure of the Advent period. Traditionally, he visits good children to offer them gifts and treats, perpetuating a centuries-old tradition.

During Advent, Luxembourg children place their slippers on their doorstep in the hope that Saint Nicholas will leave surprises there on the morning of December 6, his official feast day.

At Crèche Les Mousquetaires , we celebrate this tradition with our children and their families to reinforce the values of wonder, generosity and sharing.

A Festive Event at the Crèche Les Mousquetaires

Even though December 6th has not yet arrived, we organized a special visit from Saint Nicholas to our crèche in Leudelange. Here are the highlights of this unforgettable day:

  • A Magical Encounter with Saint Nicholas : The children were delighted to meet Saint Nicholas in person. They listened to his captivating stories, shared moments of joy and received little surprises that will remain etched in their memories.

  • Christmas Cookie Making Workshop : The children learned while having fun! They shaped and decorated their own cookies, discovering the changes in texture and flavor during baking. This fun workshop also helped develop their fine motor skills and creativity.

  • A Family Fun Time : Parents had the opportunity to share precious moments with their children while enjoying treats like cakes, panettone, tea and coffee. It was also a great opportunity to discover our unique educational approach that combines creativity, sensory learning and experimentation.
