I am excited to share this wonderful tradition with my kids...they are finally old enough to understand it and appreciate it. I am also going to introduce it to my homeschooling co-op group. See, I teach the group Spanish, and they have been really fascinated with ALL our Christmas traditions. Yes, we do have many of them, and they are wonderful! :-) I too am concentrating on keeping our Mexican traditions alive in our family, they are an important part of who we are. Our neighbors also think we are weird for leaving our Christmas tree and lights up until January 6!! LOL! Now, when we cut the "Rosca de Reyes" we always said that whoever finds the "Nino Jesus" would be the one to host next year's party...is that something our family just made up? I think it's a fun way to look forward to the new year!! Again, thanks for sharing your wonderful memories :-) Thank you for posting this!It sure brings back good childhood memories!

That was too funny. I especially like the part about how the Reyes Magos are much more fashionable than Santa Claus. LOL! That was too funny.

I am really excited to celebrate this day with my children now that they're a little older (2.5 and 4) and keeping this tradition alive. I really enjoyed it growing up and I don't want to lose it. I was saddened when talking to my brother Danny about El Dia de los Santos Reyes and he said that he was forgetting our traditions. It's especially sad since he, my sister Miriam, and I were born in Mexico! Thank you for posting this.

I never grew up with Los Reyes Magos, but I´ve grown to love the Rosca de Reyes ever since I lived in Mexico. I´m lucky that there´s tons of panaderias in Los Angeles that sell them. Can´t wait!
