BONNE ANNÉE 2020 À TOUS!
Today, January 6th, the French celebrate the epiphany. As part of traditional celebrations, many people eat the ‘galette des Rois’. Please watch the short video clip (in French) and read the article in English below to learn more about how the tradition started and how it has changed over the years.
- Alice Ayel tells the story of how the tradition began as she explains the Christian story of the three kings’ arrival in Bethlehem. This is good practice with the past tense 🙂
