24 of December - "CAGA TIÓ"

On 24 of December is a popular thing in Catalonia. " Caga Tió". For every month of December, you've given food. When I was child, I gave him tangerines and biscuits. And when arrived the day the chop with a stic, sining a song:


Tió, Tió,
caga turró.
D'avallana i de pinyó.
Si no vols cagar,
et donarè un cop de bastó.
Caga Tió!!

And when you finish sing a song, lift the blanked and below of "Tió" find a lot of presents. Store the gifts and return to sing the song. And when "Tió" when shitless enough, gives you money or sweets. 

There are diferents lyrics, here I leave another example.
