Three Kings Video Call for Kids: How It Works
Learn how to arrange a Three Kings video call for kids, choose Melchior, Gaspar or Balthazar, book a time and prepare for the call.
This is different from simply playing a prerecorded Three Kings video.
Services such as LosReyesMagos.TV describe an actual videoconference where the child can interact with a King on screen. Another option, Vienen los Reyes Magos, uses reservations and access codes to arrange the experience.
Two ways to arrange the video call
How to prepare the call
Choose the service
Decide whether you want to use a direct videoconference platform or a service that works through a scheduled appointment.
Add the child's information
Enter only the details needed to personalize the experience, such as the child's name or the information requested for the letter.
Choose the King or appointment
Depending on the service, you may be able to select Melchior, Gaspar or Balthazar and reserve an available session.
Check the confirmation
Appointment-based services may send access information or a connection link by email. Check the spam folder if the message does not arrive.
Test the device first
Check the camera, microphone, speakers and internet connection before the child joins the call.
When are Three Kings video calls available?
The season is short.
LosReyesMagos.TV states in its current legal terms that its service operates from December 26 through January 5.
That means a family looking in September or October may find a working website but no active Christmas booking period yet.
Do you need an access code?
It depends on the service.
Vienen los Reyes Magos explains that its code is a unique key used to send the child's letter and arrange the video call.
A municipality, school, company, shopping center or other participating organization may provide the code.
If your family did not receive one, the service currently says you can purchase an access code directly through its website.
What device do you need?
LosReyesMagos.TV currently supports compatible PCs, Macs, smartphones and tablets.
Its technical requirements include a camera, microphone and a stable internet connection. The platform lists browsers including Chrome, Firefox, Chromium, Safari and Opera among its supported options.
For younger children, a tablet or laptop is often easier because the screen is larger and the device can stay in one place during the conversation.
Is it a real interaction or a prerecorded video?
LosReyesMagos.TV describes its service as interaction with a King through videoconference and chat.
That makes it different from apps that simply play a prerecorded video with the child's name inserted.
Vienen los Reyes Magos also describes its product as a videollamada arranged through an appointment system.
If live interaction is important to you, check the current product description before paying or telling the child what to expect.
What should parents prepare?
Keep the child's letter or gift ideas nearby and think about one or two simple details that could make the conversation feel personal.
An adult should remain close during the session, especially with younger children.
There is no need to provide unnecessary private information. A first name, favorite activity or Christmas wish is usually enough for the experience.
If the session has a fixed start time, have the child ready a few minutes early rather than trying to connect at the exact last second.
Which service should you choose?
Choose LosReyesMagos.TV if you want a platform focused directly on interacting with one of the Three Kings through videoconference.
Choose Vienen los Reyes Magos if you already received an access code through a school, municipality, business or other participating organization, or if you prefer its appointment-based system.
In either case, verify current availability once the Christmas season begins. Appointment slots and campaign dates can change from year to year.
