  2. Día de los Reyes In many Latin American countries, children celebrate “Day of the Kings” in addition to Christmas.

  3. Los Reyes • Who are the three kings? • What did they do? • What gifts did they bring? • Why are they important to us?

  4. El 5 de enero • On the night of January 5th, children in Spain, Mexico, and other Spanish-speaking countries will put together boxes of hay or grass to leave in front of their homes for the Magi’s camels. • Or, they will line up their shoes lined up at the foot of their beds, hoping to find gifts inside when they wake up.

  5. El 6 de enero • This is almost like a second Christmas day for kids in Spanish speaking countries! They get presents and spend time celebrating with their families and communities • Celebrating Día de los Reyes in Disneyland! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EbCEVN_gIlw • Celebrating Día de los Reyes in New York City: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aZUoTLCpxUw • Celebrating Día de los Reyes with Dora the Explorer: http://www.nickjr.com/kids-videos/dora-three-kings.html

  6. King’s Cake • “El Rosca de Reyes” – King’s Cake • What does it look like to you? • A bean, candy, or small figurine of Jesus is placed inside the cake.
