Dia de Muertos

Pancho and his family are inviting you to celebrate with them! Join in as they prepare in the lead-up to the festival, setting up the ofrendas, finding photographs of beloved family members, decorating with flowers, cutting out skull patterns, cooking tamales and enjoying a wonderful day with all the family. 

Along the way, you’ll learn all about the significance and history of the festival, brought to even more life with:

• Instructions to make your own papel picado
• A recipe to make delicious pan de muerto 
• A fun quiz to try out all your knowledge 

In this immersive exploration of Dia de Muertos, kids join a family as they celebrate. Seen through the eyes of young children celebrating themselves, this is a simple and exciting way to introduce little ones to this special period.

In the Celebrations & Festivals series, you are invited into a family's celebrations as you explore the magic and excitement of religious and cultural festivals around the world.
