In Puerto Rico, as well as many other countries, there are 2 Christmas celebrations. The 25th, is the universal "Santa" day. However, on January 06, children go to their backyards, collect grass for the 3 wisemen's "camels", and leave water for them. In turn, the wisemen leave toys for the children.
