The Day of the Dead Coloring Book

On the Day of the Dead (Día de los Muertos), celebrated in late October and early November, family and friends gather to remember friends and relations who have died in a joyous manner. It is widely observed in Mexico where traditions connected with the holiday include honoring the deceased using calaveras and marigold flowers, building home altars called ofrendas loaded with favorite foods of the departed, and visiting graves with these items as gifts for the deceased as well as gifting items such as candy sugar skulls to the living. Many of the traditions associated with the celebration are included in this sumptuous coloring book. You can color elaborate sugar skulls, skeleton musicians, and families, including their pets, wearing calavera makeup. Choose the brightest selection of colored markers or pencils and create an artwork as bright as the traditions they represent.
