Families celebrate by
creating altars with ofrendas,
or offerings to the dead. An
ofrenda is a gathering of things
that a deceased loved one
enjoyed in life: favorite food
and drink, clothing, photographs
and other objects.
Even though this holiday is
about death, it is not sad.
The festival is full of life,
happiness, color, food, family
and fun. Its purpose is to

Skulls (calaveras) made of sugar (azúcar) are a popular
holiday treat. While some may think skulls are scary,
the Día de los Muertos skulls are bright and colorful!
The idea is to laugh in the face of death.
Find the two sugar skulls that are the same.
