Frequently asked questions
- What pictures are there?
- A sugar skull decorated with flowers, a Catrina in her big flowered hat, a bouquet of cempasúchil marigolds, pan de muerto, an ofrenda with candles and photographs, papel picado, a skeleton playing the guitar and a monarch butterfly.
- Is the Day of the Dead the same as Halloween?
- No. Día de Muertos, on 1 and 2 November, is a Mexican celebration of remembrance: families welcome back the loved ones who have died with an ofrenda, marigolds, candles and their favorite food. It is joyful, not spooky.
- Are they suitable for young children?
- Yes. The skulls smile and wear flowers, as on the sugar skulls sold for the holiday; choose easy for preschoolers.
- Can I use them in a Spanish class?
- Yes: print a page for every pupil, and pair them with the Day of the Dead word search or crossword.
- Is anything uploaded?
- No. The pictures are drawn in your browser and the PDF is made there too.
