In the days before Epiphany the kids write letters to the Magi requesting a toy or gift they would like. The 5th night they will leave the shoes out of the house with some hay inside of them. The day later they will find the gift they wanted in the shoe. People usually dress up like the "tres Reyes Mages" which in English means "three Magic Kings" on the 6th.
