In Dutch folklore, Sinterklaas is known to reward good children with gifts and treats, while he is said to deal with bad children by putting them on his "naughty list." Traditionally, it is believed that he might send them back to Spain, where he is said to live, or give them coal instead of presents. However, these tales are often delivered in a light-hearted manner, emphasizing the importance of good behavior rather than instilling fear. Ultimately, Sinterklaas encourages kindness and generosity during the festive season.
