"The wise men gave there finest to the One they believed to be the King of the Jews. Just as God had given his best, they gave what were the most expensive gifts of their day. Gold for prosperity, frankincense for sweetness and atmosphere, and myrrh as the preservative symbolizing his ability to overcome even the worst of times. Their finest to the Finest."

Gold so they would have money to pay for stuff Jesus needed. The other two were very rare and sought after, they could get alot of money or barter supplies with it.
Basically they helped support Jesus's family.

They weren't really symbols for anything they were more like their appreciation and gratitude to God for sending His son. And I don't think we were really sure on how many wise men but I think they think there is three because there were 3 gift.....gold,frankencense,myrr. Hope I helped!
