Biblical person: Three Kings (Magi/Wise Men)

Creative activities and ideas based on the biblical figure of Three Kings (Magi/Wise Men)

The Three Kings, also known as the Magi or Wise Men, are mentioned in the Gospel of Matthew as visiting the baby Jesus after his birth in Bethlehem. The Bible does not specify their names or how many there were, but tradition holds that there were three and that they brought gifts of gold, frankincense, and myrrh. The Three Kings are widely celebrated in Christian tradition, particularly in the Western Church, with their feast day falling on January 6th, which is also known as Epiphany.
