  • Las Posadas (Mexico, Guatemala and Other Central American Countries)
    Me llamo __________________________ Fecha _____________ Read the following passages about Hispanic holiday celebrations this time of year. Then write the dates for each holiday in the Spanish format (date/ month/ year). Can you write out the months as well? (ex. el 3 de febrero) Las Posadas (Mexico, Guatemala and other Central American countries). Las Posadas commemorate the journey of Mary and Joseph to Bethlehem and their search for a place to stay. The word posada means inn. Family and friends visit one another in their homes and enjoy conversations and traditional foods, and visitors sing carols. The holiday takes place from December 16 – December 24 each year. Colombians celebrate a similar holiday called La Novena and for nine days. Families pray and sing traditional carols. La Nochebuena (Christmas Eve, December 24) y la Navidad (Christmas, December 25). In many Catholic countries, people attend midnight mass (la misa del gallo – the rooster mass!) on Christmas Eve. Preparing traditional foods is also an integral part of the holiday. Mexicans get together for a tamalada or a tamal- making session. A tamal is usually made of shredded pork and corn meal called masa, and tucked into a corn shuck or leaf. Puerto Ricans prepare pasteles puertorriqueños which are encased in plantain leaves and stuffed with black beans, pork, raisins, and other ingredients. Cubans often have a lechón asado, a roasted pork dish. In Perú, they celebrate with hot chocolate and panettone, an Italian sweetbread. Presents are not exchanged on this day. In España, the more common traditions include incredibly elaborate "Nacimientos" (nativity scenes), Christmas trees, and remarkable Christmas markets scattered among villages and cities with piles of fruits, flowers, marzipan and other sweets, candles, decorations and hand-made Christmas gifts.

  • Spanish Christmas Vocabulary
    Spanish Christmas Vocabulary Feliz Navidad — Merry/Happy Christmas Nochebuena — This term for “Christmas Eve” literally means “Good Night.” It usually consists of a large meal. Navidad — Christmas Día de Navidad — Christmas Day Próspero Año Nuevo — It’s used to mean “Happy New Year,” but it literally means “prosperous New Year.” Nochevieja — This term for “New Year’s Eve” literally means “old night.” Año Nuevo — New Year Día de Año Nuevo — New Year’s Day Noche de Reyes — This means “Night of Kings,” referencing the Three Kings most Americans are familiar with. Noche de Reyes occurs on the night of January 5th into the morning of the 6th. In many Spanish-speaking countries (and indeed, many other countries around the world), most gifts are traditionally delivered by the Three Kings during this night. On Christmas, the children just receive small gifts. Día de Reyes — This “Day of Kings,” is also known as “Epiphany” or “Three Kings’ Day.” It’s on January 6th. This is the proverbial “12th day of Christmas” and is celebrated with food and gifts. Though in the US this day is largely ignored, many people around the world (including in Spanish-speaking countries) consider this the pinnacle of the Christmas season. Niño Jesús — Baby Jesus Virgen María y José — Virgin Mary and Joseph. Reyes Magos — This literally means “Magi Kings.” It refers to the “Three Magi,” “Three Kings” or, as they’re most commonly known in English, the “Three Wise Men.” Papá Noel — Rather than Santa Claus, most Spanish-speaking countries have “Father Christmas.” He isn’t as popular as Santa, though, and he often leaves only a small gift on Christmas.
