💀💀💀
Thanks really helped with my Spanish class assignment
same 😂😂
Agreed
Me to just now
I work in a restaurant and mostly Hispanics work there. I'm Mexican but never knew my father (who gave me my Mexican side) so I never got to learn or do any of the traditional Mexican stuff or food. Sometimes I feel like a bad Mexican because I don't know Spanish. So my coworkers ask me if I wanted some of the bread, and I was like, yeah, and they told me if he found a baby Jesus, you have to bring tamales to work. Now, I've never really cooked tamales, but cooking is my passion, and I take culinary classes and I love to cook. And to my surprise, when I got the bread, there was a little baby Jesus inside, and that just made me feel really welcomed, just wanted to share my story.
Beautiful story!!!!
God Bless you!!
I have never heard of this but I have learned something new. Thank you for sharing this wonderful video.
Thank you for the video I was trying to explain my daughter about the Rosca de Reyes because is important to me that she knows her culture as a Mexican she only knows the American culture. We cut our first rosca and she found the baby. She was so happy. Thank you for sharing this video.
I'm going to present this video to my middle school Spanish class next week. Thank you!
I absolutely LOVE the idea of learning about travel AND learning Spanish at the same time! Definitely following!!!!!!!!
Thanks, Tattling Tourist! 🙌🏻
I have never heard of the bread. So interesting. Now I want to visit again!
It's good stuff! And you get to throw a party if you find the baby Jesus, so it's a win-win. 😅
I’m not catholic but have many friends that are and thank you for this video. God Bless
I really love you guys. I can trust your videos to be school appropriate and to be perfect for my middle schoolers in an exploratory-type class. Thank you for providing materials to supplement my instruction.
Thank you, Jane! We appreciate that. We’re working on creating a blog post version to go along with this video too over at spanishandgo.com Stay tuned. Thanks for watching! -Jim
Thanks for making this video! I showed it to my kids and it really helped them understand the importance of this holiday 🇲🇽
Thanks for watching!
that had all i needed for my assignment thanks
I'm Mexican a I'm doing it today on January 6th and it's fun because we also have hot chocolate
I meant on January 4th

Anyone here from spanish class?
Mr
Yep
Showed the video to my dual language class. They really liked it!!
Thank you for sharing! Un saludo. :) -Jim
¡Me encantó tu video, es perfecto para mi clase de español! (Ahora sólo necesito una hoja de trabajo con preguntas que los estudiantes puedan responder mientras ven el video!) :-)
OMG, loved that video. Thank you! I'm generally interested in traditions and traditional food as well, and I'd love to hear more about Mexican traditions/traditional food.
In Germany we have an old custom of hiding a dried bean inside a bread (or cake), usually for the end-of-summer-celebrations at the beginning of August. The person who finds the bean is the Bean King and sometimes is crowned with a paper crown.
Please make more videos of this kind :)
We're so glad you liked it! We're working on more "How to...in Spanish" type videos right now, but we wanted to share this tradition quick to show some more of the culture here in Mexico.
That German tradition is really interesting! My dad is from Germany and we just visited in 2017 together for the first time. Thanks for sharing! We'll definitely be making more videos like this one in the future. Thanks so much for your support! :) -Jim
Sprichst Du auch Deutsch? :)
Ja, ich spreche ein bisschen Deutsch. 😉
Klasse! Ich hatte den Eindruck, dass viele, die von Deutschland in die USA ausgewandert sind, ihren Kindern nicht mehr Deutsch beibringen.
Das ist richtig. Haba ich unterrichte mich selbst. I don't have many people to practice with, but I always study a little bit each day. :)
Hello! I’m Hispanic, and live in America, but my family does this! We got money in our shoe and we will cut a pastry!
- Coming from a 9 year old excited about this day.
That's great! Thanks for sharing. It's good to hear your family is keeping the tradition going. Cheers! -Jim
I hope you had a good day
¡Qué bonito! Gracias por una historia fascinante.
I saw the bread at Fiesta and I had to check it out, thanks for the knowledge!
Awesome details thank you for the education
This video is great!!! Thank you so much! I have a report due and it was a great help!
Glad we could help! Thanks for watching. ¡Saludos desde México! -Jim
Me encanta este video. Es un poco diferente a como yo lo celebro pero aprendi mucho. Gracias!
There are a few facts that are not 100% accurate, but overall great job introducing this RELIGIOUS, CATHOLIC TRADITION, which I've celebrated with my family for my entire life. I'm 46 and this is more than a simple cultural tradition, it's directly related to our FAITH IN GOD AND THE BIRTH OF JESUS. The days before the 6th of January every year are all about preparing and planning 3 Kings Day, it's a HUGE DEAL, HUGE!!!! A day to visit with family and share in the Joy of the birth of Christ again!!! I did not grow up knowing about santa claus, I had no idea he existed until I was an adolescent, but we never celebrated the coming of santa in my home, he's a fictional character, Jesus is real, He's in the history books as a REAL PERSON WHO LIVED, even for those who don't believe in Him being The Christ, there's no doubt He is a real person who lived on this earth and was a prophet. Though now a days thanks to marketing santa is every where, but Christmas is ALL ABOUT CHRIST, AS IN JESUS CHRIST AS IN JESUS IS THE REASON FOR THE SEASON PERIOD AND AMEN. I sensed a fearful "spirit" to stand up for Christ when the disclaimer was given 🤣🤣🤣, disclaimer: this is a secular channel... in Mexico there's no such thing we can speak freely and without judgement about God, Jesus, Mary, etc, there are very, very few ppl who would even voice a problem with it publicly, mostly they still respectfully do it privately. Since most of us grew up Catholic, we are for the most part tolerant, but in Mexico giving such disclaimers as this is a secular channel is totally unnecessary. This is just my take on it. I'm not trying to give hate here, just to clarify to the viewers that for us Mexican believers it's not just one more holiday, IT IS THE HOLIDAY!!! Traditionally gifts were not exchanged at all on Christmas day or boxing day like it is called in Britain. Gift giving was exclusively until 3 Kings Day, so much has changed since American influence and marketing has invaded our country. It is what it is, I'm a Mexican-American and proud of being bi-cultural, nothing can be done, this is the way of marketing to increase sales during the most sacred of holidays... same thing happened to our Day of the Dead, a celebration of the lives of our dead relatives and friends, a day to give respect to those who we loved and have left us, a day of remembrance, yes it's a little sad, but mostly full of joy an laughter, well now it's not the Day of the Dead and our traditions abounding full force everywhere, only a minority celebrate fully the Day of the Dead now, as we had done for centuries, now it is just holloween... a pagan celebration putting on silly costumes and giving candy so kids can develop more diabetes, btw in Mexico we are #1 in obesity and diabetes now... Shocker... It's a shame so much of our culture has succumbed to marketing and making $$$... Anywho, I hope all who read this comment are not upset and instead are encouraged to learn more about the original traditions that make our culture unique. All cultures are so rich and varied, it's definitely worth while researching and seeing how much most cultures are alike, how similar we all are. Viv la différence!!! 🙏🏻❤️
It's not just "Día de Reyes", it's Día de Reyes Magos, so the translation it's not "Day of the kings". In English los 3 Reyes magos are known as "the 3 Wisemans Kings".
I think the short name from British/Irish traditional Catholics used to be (or still are??) "Wisemans day".
We actually call it Epiphany or Twelfth Night.
NOT in Spanish.
We say 3 KINGS = REYES
Loved this! I’m joining a celebration that my little Spanish school does in Todos Santos on the 6th! Your video really taught me so much! Three people are dressing as the Kings & we have a lot of gifts for the children of farm workers. Last year I was here & the restaurant I was at served the bread but I was just confused!! Thank you!! P.S.- is it possible to keep the written words on the screen longer so I can copy, then practice pronunciation?
Several years ago our church encouraged us to consider other faith traditions, like Three Kings Day, that would help us think of the Christ child beyond Christmas. We made a very simple three Kings cake back then, but this year I hope my boys and I can make a better one. But most importantly I want my boys to understand why we are celebrating, which you do such a great job explaining!! Question for you is…What do you usually eat/drink with the cake? Is there any traditional meals or drinks?
We drink hot chocolate(chocolate abuelita) or champurrado.
To the people who is using the video for a class, just make a point that the baby Jesus is a representation of the son of god and in Mexico is respected and a privilege to find it. We Do to not give it to a dog to chew it.
The context was that along King Balthazar wanted to kill baby Jesus. We put a crown on the dog to represent this. No plastic baby Jesuses we’re harmed in the making of this video. 😂 -Jim
Thank you for this great explanation!!!
No deja de ser una tradición procedente de España. El roscón de Reyes lleva una haba y al q le toca debe pagar el rosco el año siguiente. En Mexico se adapto teniendo q hacer tamales en febrero. En España es el mayor acontecimiento infantil del año.
SI, pero Mexico la mejoro poniendole al Rey de reyes,
o sea, como simbolo al Niño Jesus!!!!
Como no se les ocurrio antes verdad!
Los alumnos [Mexicanos]
superaron al maestro [España]
y la convirtieron en la verdadera
razon del evento!
@@Lezith456 El 2 de febrero es la fiesta de la Calendaria, presentación de Jesúss en el Templo o la Purificación de la Virgen termina el periodo post-navideño y algunos tiene la tradición de desmontar el nacimiento.
Gracias por su video
BRAVO!!!!
Thank you,
both of you look so cute together
Thank you!
Really good explanation!
I loved it! so true!
I noticed a bug walking around your bread (4:30-4:36) what happens if i get a bug in my bread?
Do i still throw a party?
j.c. rodriguez
I’m pretty sure, ants don’t do much.
HI MY NAME IS MARIA REYES AND MY HUSBAND AND I HAD 3 BOYS, I’ve never made the bread as a Catholic Christian
Cool.
yes lived in baja for 6 years
Y también si te sale el niño invitas los tamales 😉✌️saludos desde Mexico
No, it doesn’t start in the 12
It begins 9 day before that
We pray la novena ala Virgen de Guadalupe antes del día 12 .
I'm learning this from school Spanish 12:55 pm in Spanish classe period 5
dude on the left blends in with the background
I’ve seen videos about Spain and the children there have their gifts delivered by the three kings too (well think they do)
yeah, lying to children about people from the bible is wrong.
On January 6, Polish Catholics take small boxes containing chalk, a gold ring, incense, and a piece of amber to church to be blessed. Once at home, they inscribe the date and "K+M+B+" (or, more recently, C+M+B) with the blessed chalk above the door to protect against illness and misfortune for those within. King Cake with a lucky coin or almond. The one to receive the piece with a coin or almond will be the king! Most recently, Polish Catholics started to recreate the procession in which the Magi arrived to Jesus. The procession is usually accompanied by groups of carol singers
Hola, disfruto mucho tus videos, muchas gracias, pero no entiendo por qué no hablas español. Quiero aprender algo nuevo porfa.
¡Hola! Gracias por vernos. Mucha gente que nos ve está empezando a aprender español, pero tienes suerte. Nuestro podcast está en español y acabamos de publicar un episodio sobre Día de Reyes. Lo puedes escuchar aquí: spanishandgo.com/podcast/three-kings-day Un saludo desde México. -Jim
La tradición de la rosca de los reyes existía in Francia desde el siglo XIV (la galette des rois)

🎉 Legend!
Who’s here from Microsoft teams
Rosca de reyes 🤤🤤🤤
My family told my Arab husband about the baby Jesus. He was like “yeah… right.” Then on his first bite he chomped into a plastic baby. He was shocked! We were like, “We just told you!”
😂
New sub! :3
This is a Latino/Hispanic tradition/holiday; not just from Mexico.
Correct, but the title of this video is “…in Mexico.”
So you could say that baby Jesus is “in bread”
pov: imagine not liking bread XD
I got it
its called three kings day
Streko Rodriguez In Spanish it’s “Dia de Reyes” or “Dias de los Reyes Magos” which does refer to the three Kings, but in neither name mentions the word “three.” The art of translation is not an exact science, but I don’t think we confused too many people here. Thanks for watching!
Best,
-Jim
I got a baby Jesus on the Bread
Nice! Now you have to make tamales for the party! Thanks for watching. ☺️ -Jim
Why does he look at her like that lol
Because he loves her.
Get outta here Robert.
No es la vasta mayoria quiza una parte significativa
Ends on January 6th?! LOL, Don't forget dia de la candelaria.
All this are Spanish Traditions
Every tradition that exists today is the continuation of or syncretization of a celebration from one or more other cultures. Día de Reyes is a tradition that is celebrated in Mexico and many other Spanish-speaking countries. But May is from Mexico, so in this video we talked about how it is celebrated in Mexico. Thanks for watching!
@@SpanishandGo Yeah. Rosco, in Spain it is called Roscón. Its origin comes from the Roman culture
nope
Thanks for watching, Hani!
no
You're right.
The plural of Jesus is Jesi fyi
paganism. you change the cover of the book, the book is still the same. you take the cover off of one book and put it on another, the book does not change that cover.
Cool. Now to convince the masses. Thanks for watching! -Jim
Son nuestras tradiciones.
@@luismanuelpotenciano1300 No son tus tradiciones. Muchos vienen de otros religiones y dioses.
@@SpanishandGo you’re welcome. And yes. Now to convince the masses.
