Christmas for the local children

The Captain's Daughter Restaurant/La Playa Bar always have a place to leave toys etc for Christmas for the kids. I believe that Juanito also takes gifts to kids at Christmas. Santa Claus stops on Christmas Eve and sees lots of kids I know in Zihuatanejo. Then the Mexican Custom of receiving gifts is still on Jan 6th.

As far back as 45 years ago when my parents were spending Christmas in Zihua, Santa Claus brought homemade candy, cookies, and small gifts to many kids in LaNoria. My Dad had a big bag over his shoulder and went here and there delivering. Mom would be home baking. The few Christmas's I was in Zihua back then I was one of the elf bakers.
