"Some of us lose those traditions when we move to the States," said Jossy Villa, 51, a Maryland resident who is originally from Puerto Rico."But I refuse to let my daughter and my grandson miss out on their culture."
After Vidal emigrated from Mexico to Texas when she was a little girl, her parents reinforced the Three Kings Day tradition by explaining to her and her sisters that,"while Santa Claus was a good man who delivered toys to children in need, their family would always celebrate the Three Wise Men."On the night of Jan. 5th, her children put one their shoes under the tree and inside of the shoe, they left a note they wrote for The Three Wise Men.
According to him, instilling the tradition has not been difficult since his kids love the idea of getting presents on both Dec.25 and on Jan. 6. Three Kings has also become a cultural tradition in towns and cities across the U.S., with museums and organizations organizing events and parades.
