Our Day of the Dead Altar this year is probably the most elaborate we have created at the Kids Club. All of the children and parents have participated in the process and contributed items to commemorate their lost loved ones. This year we featured The Mexican artist Frida Khalo. The children learned about her contributions to Mexican art and culture that make her an icon for the country recognized around the world.
The children had fun with some color by numbers Halloween activities, dancing, and celebrating this holiday with both Mexican and American (US and Canadian) customs including lots of candy, costumes, and face painting.
