In Peru, Christmas is fairly similar to celebrations held in the US and Europe, when many families get together, celebrate and exchange gifts. The well off families generally eat turkey and eat Paneton (a cake/bread filled with fruits) and drink hot chocolate.
In the week preceding Christmas, it is also popular for communities, churches or charity organizations to organize “Chocolatadas” where people who make a Christmas gesture to poor children and families by offering them a cup of hot chocolate, food and perhaps small gifts.
Below are some of the fun photos of the Chocolotada that EMT and our Peruvian staff/volunteers arranged for the community of San Agustin - Puente Piedra:
