Saturdays for Kids: Dia de los Muertos

Description

Give your kids the time of their life by celebrating the “Day of the Dead!” While the most familiar symbol of this Mexican holiday may be the calacas y calaveras (skeletons and skulls) that appear everywhere from sugar skulls to parade masks during the holiday, they are almost always portrayed enjoying life, often in fancy clothes. Participants will have the chance to get a jumpstart on Dia de los Muertos by decorating sugar skulls, making paper flowers, and enjoying face painting inspired by La Calavera Catrina (the “Dapper Skeleton” or “Elegant Skull”). Designed for children ages 4 – 12. Free for children and accompanying adults. Activities offered while supplies last. For more information, call (405) 478-2250 ext. 250.
