yesterday was Three Kings Day, when traditionally, children were given gifts, like Jesus was given gifts by the three Kings. Gold, frankincense and Myrrh.
When I was young, in puerto rico, we did not celebrate santa claus. my dad, being an episcopal priest, always waited until the epiphany to give us gifts. we would leave water and straw for the camels!!!!
my folks would scatter the straw to make it look like the camels had gone upstairs. It was awesome.
most kids got their gifts on the 25th, due to the USA's santa influence.
