January 6 marks the end of the holiday season in Mexico with 'El Dia de Reyes' (Three Kings Day). This final day celebrates the day the three wise men arrived with gifts for baby Jesus in Bethlehem. This is also the day when children all around Mexico will receive their holiday gifts, unlike the United States where children receive gifts on Christmas day.
As part of the celebration, homes and bakeries will be filled with the aroma of ‘Rosca de Reyes’ the traditional wreath shaped bread that is served with friends and family in every city, town, and small village . . .
