Santa Claus vs. The Three Kings

In Spain today is the day that children will be waking up early to open their presents.
How lucky they are! Children in other countries will be waking up to go to school!

Traditionally in Spain children receive their presents from the Three Kings on the 6th of January – the feast of the Epiphany, but nowadays some children also receive presents from Santa Claus. That means they get TWO lots of presents!!!
