With a sleigh that travels the world, Santa surely has a passport stamped with traditions galore. Buckle up, as we soar through a cloud of festivities:

1. Italy’s ‘Feast of the Seven Fishes’:

While many await Santa, Italians prepare for La Vigilia, a seafood feast on Christmas Eve. Dive deep into this tradition, exploring the significance of each dish.

2. South Korea’s Caroling Fun:

Christmas in South Korea might be less commercial, but it’s equally festive. Children carol with bright lanterns, filling the streets with melodies.

3. Egypt’s Coptic Celebrations:

Coptic Christians in Egypt celebrate Christmas on January 7th. A 43-day fast, where no animal products are consumed, leads up to this day.

4. Barbados’s Masquerade Bands:

Bring the Caribbean flair into lessons by showcasing Barbados’s ‘Tuk’ bands. Dressed in bright masquerade, they blend African and British traditions in their festive parades.

5. Guatemala’s ‘La Quema del Diablo’:

Before the Christmas festivities begin, Guatemalans celebrate ‘The Burning of the Devil’, a tradition that cleanses homes and streets of evil to welcome the festive spirit.

Conclusion: 

The footprints of festive traditions are found everywhere, from snowy trails to sandy beaches. At Kids ‘R’ Kids, our itinerary is packed with learning adventures, ensuring our young explorers cherish and understand the true spirit of global celebrations.
