I won't forget "The Day of the
Kings" - "El Dia de Reyes." It
is the most important day for the children. When I was a child, I
enjoyed that day a lot. After all parties of the month of December,
the
next important day is "the Day of the Kings" on 6th day
of the New Year
in January. On that day every child prepares candy, water and grass
like I did. Some children put cigarettes, but in my case I didn't
want that the kings smoke. The children put it below the bed, so
each child
goes to the bed early because the parents say if they don't get to
bed
early, the kings don't come to that house.
I forgot to say that "El Dia de Reyes" - "the Day
of the Kings" - is a
day when most of the children receive toys, so they are very, very,
very
happy that day. The candy that children put is for the kings and
the
water, too. The grass is for the camels, because they believe that
the
kings come on camels. They come at midnight when the children are
sleeping. The kings come in across hollow of the door, so they
transform like ants.
The next day, after 6th January, is the most hoped
for day for every child, but it is one day hoped for by the parents,
too. "The
Day of the
Kings" is a wonderful day. Every parent enjoys that day to
see their
children happy. |
