Children's Books for the Day of the Dead. Creative Kids Culture Blog Hop - November 2015


If your kids languages are English and Spanish you might be interested in this wonderful children’s book selection for Day of the Dead - Día de Muertos (in Spanish) put together by Leanna from “All done monkey”. This is my pick from October’s Creative Kids Culture Blog Hop.

Day of the Dead - Día de Muertos (in Spanish) is celebrated in Mexico on the 1st and 2nd of November. In many other countries people visit the graves of their deceased loved ones and remember them during the same period. In Italy the All Souls' Day ( Commemorazione dei defunti in Italian) is celebrated on November 2. However, in Mexico this festivity is more like a celebration full of joy. It is believed that this day dead people are coming back to be again with their relatives and to take the gifts of their favorite food and drinks.

Skuls (calacas) and skeletons (calaveras) are symbols of the Day of the Dead and can be found pretty much everywhere. They could be depicted on people's faces, be part of a costume or even edible, such  as sweets.

I am sure your kids would enjoy reading and learning more about other culture.
