| Christians celebrate Epiphany or "Three Kings Day" on January 6. Epiphany is a story about the Three Kings who visited Jesus. |
 |
| Balthazar is from Africa. Melchior is from Asia. Caspar is from Europe. They are the Three Kings. They are wise men who study stars. |
 |
| The Three Kings see a very bright star. They follow the star to Bethlehem. They travel many miles. The star stops over a house in Bethlehem. Jesus, Mary, and Joseph live in the house. |
 |
| The Three Kings meet Jesus, Mary, and Joseph. They are very happy! The Three Kings give Jesus three gifts: gold, frankincense, and myrrh. |
 |
| Today, people give small gifts, eat a special cake, or have a Three Kings Day Parade on the Epiphany. The Three Kings show us that all people can come to Jesus. |
