The 6th of January is the Epiphany. The French eat the "galette des rois" (the Kings' cake) named after "les Rois Mages" (the magi or Wise Men in English). The tradition is that the youngest member of the family should get under the table and call the name for each part of the cake. The one who gets "la fève" (a lucky charm) is crowned as the King or the Queen by the others. This is called "tirer les rois".
