In Mexico, they don't believe in Santa Clause, but they do believe Los Tres Reyes Magos who brings all the children their gifts. They eat a bread called el Rosca de Reyes in January 6th which is a sweet delicious bread. Inside the bread, there are baby figures and if your slice of bread has one, you have to invite everyone present to a party on February 2nd.
