Best Answer

Gifts are given mainly to children, but must always include a book and a heritage symbol. The book is to emphasize the African value and tradition of learning stressed since ancient Egypt, and the heritage symbol to reaffirm and reinforce the African commitment to tradition and history.

Do Kwanzaa people get gifts?

Yes, during Kwanzaa, people often exchange gifts with family and loved ones. However, the emphasis of Kwanzaa is on celebrating African heritage, unity, and community, rather than materialism or consumerism. The gifts given during Kwanzaa are usually symbolic and may include books, art, or items that promote African culture and values.


If you celebrate Kwanzaa when do you receive your gifts?

GIFTS Kuumba (creativity) is greatly encouraged. Not only is Kuumba one of the seven principles, it also brings a sense of personal satisfaction and puts one squarely into the spirit of Kwanzaa. Therefore, those symbols that can be made, should be made. The giving of gifts during Kwanzaa should be affordable and of an educational or artistic nature. Gifts are usually exchanged between parents and children and traditionally given on January 1st, the last day of Kwanzaa. However, gift giving during Kwanzaa may occur at any time.
