    Family Past Times - Holiday Traditions from Around the World

    Since the Gold Rush, immigrants have come to the Peninsula from around the world. When they came, they brought with them customs from their home lands. Through craft activities, discover some of the immigrants' holiday traditions.

    Learn how to make an Italian Le Befana doll, create a Filipino Parol, make English party crackers, discover a Japanese New Year’s game, and construct a Mexican rattle. Also, take pictures with Santa!...
