Christmas is celebrated from December 12th to January 6th.
Children perform "Posadas," which are depictions of Mary and Joseph traveling and asking for room at the Inn, from December 12th to Christmas Eve. They carry candles and painted clay figures of Mary riding on a donkey and Joseph, and call on the houses of neighbors and friends. They sing a song asking for a room at the house, but hey are turned away. Eventually, they are welcomed in, and they say a prayer of Thanksgiving and have a party with food, games, and fireworks.
Manger scenes called 'Nacimiento' are popular in Mexico. Christmas trees are becoming more popular. The Poinsetta plant is called 'nochebuena' (Christmas Eve) flowers in Mexico.
In some states in Mexico, children look forward to Santa arriving on Christmas Eve, while children in southern Mexico expect "The Three Kings" to leave presents on January 6th at Epiphany, which is known as 'el Dia de los Reyes'. It is traditional to eat a special cake called 'Rosca de Reyes' on Epiphany.
Candelaria (also known as Candlemas) on the 2nd February marks the end of the Mexican Christmas celebrations. Many Mexicans have parties on Candelaria.
