The Span- iards, carrying little Hgurines of the characters in the Christmas story, sang and knocked at many doors. When finally they were welcomed into a home, the joyous celebration began. A child was given a stick with which he tried to break the earthenware jar or pinata, filled with favors and sweets. When he succeeded, treats were scattered to the guests. Through studying these rites, and through singing Spanish songs, playing Spanish games, and see- ing Spanish movies, the members become acquainted with the customs and habits of Spanish-speaking people.
