The document describes Christmas and New Year traditions in Spain. At Christmas, Spanish homes decorate with nativity scenes and Christmas trees. The Christmas holiday lasts from December 22nd to January 7th. For New Year's Eve, families celebrate together with seafood, meat, and fish. At midnight, they eat 12 grapes, one for each chime of the clock in Madrid's Puerta del Sol while making wishes. On January 6th, the Three Wise Men bring presents to houses. A special cake called Roscón is eaten that evening with small gifts hidden inside.

streets with a lot of
bright lights.

night of the year with
the family. We eat a lot
of praws and specially
meat and fish.

• When it is twelve o'clock we eat
twelve grapes, one for each stroke of
the clock. And we toast with
champagne. We follow the clock of
"La Puerta del Sol" in Madrid.

• One year, Spanish farmers
cultivated a lot lands of grapes.
And the Spanish thought that

Eve to celebrate the twelve
months of the year.

sweet
• On 6th January evening
we eat a special sweet
that in Spanish is
called " Roscón". We
usually eat it with hot
chocolate. This sweet
hides small presents
and if you find one bean
you have to pay the
"Roscón".
