This is normally celebrated on Jan 6th. But we chose to do it early since Mom was here visiting this week. In
Puerto Rico, it is traditional that children collect hay, straw or grass and place it in boxes or containers under their beds. This gesture is a gift of food for the Kings' camels while they rest in between deliveries. If a child is good for the past year he will receive candies, sweets or toys. If the child was misbehaved or naughty he would instead find a lump of dirt or charcoal in his box. Ethan was very interested in the story but he thought it was really sad that Santa did not go to the island. The boys had fun filling up the boxes with leaves(we didn't have any grass but had MORE than enough leaves). The Three Kings left presents and Ethan thought that was really cool.
Hudson kept dumping out the leaves and we would have to start over
Looking for the perfect leaves....
Ethan was so proud that he filled up his box.
of course they love to play in the box
I have no idea what Hudson is doing
that would be a Kung Fu Panda movie
Hudson will not put down the Backyardign movie
