Navidad

Navidad is a holiday celebrating the

birth of Jesus . On the 16 of December

they begin to prepare for navidad

by starting the Posada which ends

on Noche Buena (dec 24). Guests

are able to lodge at a hosts house by singing a special chant. Once the guests are at the host household

they prepare the nativity scene.

Once the nativity is set up everyone in the house kneels around it to pray the Rosary. The

children hit a piñata after the prayer. On Noche Buena there

is a special mass and after that mass everyone goes to their homes for

dinner with family and to place baby

Jesus in the manger. Children do

not receive their presents on the 25

they wait until January 6th to receive them.

This holiday celebrates the preparation for

Jesus' birth. When the 25 rolls around that is the actual

day they celebrate Jesus' birth. The

celebrate his birth because he is the

savior.

Christmas is celebrated in all

speaking countries.

Divertiría la celebración de la

navidad. Sería divertido celebrar la navidad en un país hispanohablante. Sería divertido y

diferente experienciar la navidad en una

cultura diferente. Lo celebran diferente

pero para las mismas razones.

Sería bein celebrar navidad donde hace

calor que donde hace frio!
