Día de Reyes for Kids: Three Kings Shoebox Kit with Letter and Rosca Page, Bilingual

A 14-page bilingual (Spanish and English) kit for a family whose children have grown up on Santa and have never left grass out for the Kings' camels on the night of 5 January. It is for grandparents, parents, Spanish teachers and parish groups. The dates are set for 2027: Tuesday 5 January for the night, Wednesday 6 January for the gifts and the rosca, and Tuesday 2 February for Candelaria.

Inside: the story of the wise men from Matthew 2, told for ages 4 to 9, once in English and once in Spanish (pages 2-3); a shoebox label to cut out, in one large and two small sizes, for the grass or hay (page 4); a fill-in letter to the Three Kings in Spanish and another in English (pages 5-6); a rosca de reyes page with a table for who found the baby figure (page 7); a Candelaria planner for the tamales, atole and chocolate that whoever finds the figure hosts (page 8); how the day is kept in Puerto Rico, Mexico and Spain (page 9); three paper crowns named Melchor, Gaspar and Baltasar, each on its own landscape page (pages 10-12); a keepsake page for the morning (page 13); and a Spanish-English word list (page 14).

Print on US Letter or A4. The crowns need paper or cardstock, scissors and tape. Each custom is attributed to the place it comes from, and the kit says that families keep the day in their own way.
