∙ 12y agoUs Dutch folks put up a tree a few weeks in advance, but mostly not before December 6th, because on the evening of December 5th we have another important holiday to celebrate: Sinterklaas. You could compare him a bit to your American Santaclaus, an old man with a white beard bringing over presents for the children.
With Christmas, mostly we visit family and have Christmas meals, play a few games, watch TV together etc. Most Dutch people do not have a religion, but those who do, go to a church.

∙ 12y agoDutch people celebrate birthdays by usually inviting over their family on the day itself, or another day that's more suitable. (e.g. on Saturday instead of a Thursday. They'll buy 2 or 3 different kind of cakes, but usually not the special cakes with pictures and everything on them. My mum usually bakes an apple pie and buys 2 other types so people can choose. You usually bring a small present when you go to a birthday. If you can't go over to visit it is normal to send a birthday card. Kids will usually have a separate party as well, with their friends for their birthday, where they might go swimming, Bowling, or stay at home and do something creative.
