In folklore the Krampus (half devil, half goat) would roam the streets on the eve of the 5th December looking for naughty children to punish. Sometimes he would carry a pile of birch twigs to beat them too. He might travel on is own, or with St Nicholas who had his own Feast and festival on the 6th December where good children were celebrated. Krampusnacht is still celebrated in some European countries today. Print out and colour in this sheet to explore Christmas and Christmas traditions around the world.

A settlements and geography themed colouring page created for a lesson about hamlets, villages, towns, and cities. This is the church and clock tower on the tiny British Channel Island of Alderney. The island has a population of around 1000 but a new church had to built in the 1900s as the island's population increased when British soldiers were stationed on the island and the church was too small to accommodate all the new arrivals. Today the island has more than 4 churches, and just a handful of shops so everything has to be brought in by plane or ship.
