THE THREE WISE MEN

We want to tell you about the 3 Wise Men's legend

. The legend goes:
"When Jesus was born, one shooting star appeared in the east: 3 kings named Melchior, Gaspar, and Baltazar looked up at the stars and saw it. They followed it. The star led them to Jesus. They worshipped him and brought him three special presents : gold, myrrh and incense "

In Andorra and Spain people have a big parade where the 3 Kings on their camels and the pages give candies to people. On 5th December at night while children are sleeping the 3 kings bring them a lot of lot of presents if they have been nice or charcoal if they have been mean . And on the 6th in the morning the children get up very early to open their presents . People eat the 3 kings cake with a bean hidden inside. The person who finds the bean has to buy another cake.
