On the 6th Day of Christmas

On the 6th day of Christmas, my true love gave to me… (for children and adults alike, here and here).

Today is Saint Nicolas Day, a wonderful feast in Germany, when children get an extra dose of sweets and loving attention. Therefore, I’ve put two “gifts” in the song. If you want to know about Saint Nicolas check here. Charlotte has written a lovely description of the Christmas season honoured and celebrated all over Germany.
