Day of the Dead Sugar Skull Coloring Book - Monika Mira

The Day of the Dead (Dia de los Muertos) Sugar Skull Coloring Book features ten (10) original sugar skull coloring pages and one blank skull template that can be customized by the artist. The book was originally developed as an anatomy and social studies lesson for teachers and includes a child life size 4' skeleton that can be torn out, colored in and assembled to make decorations for Dia de los Muertos or Halloween. All the major bones of the skeleton are labeled. Children will learn the names of the bones and how they fit together. If you are only interested in coloring sugar skull, may we suggest the Day of the Dead Sugar Skull Coloring Book 2 (also by Monika Mira), which includes twenty-four meticulously hand-drawn sugar skulls. The back of each page is left blank so that the artist can tear out the pages and use them to string banners, decorate an alter, make masks, or for a cultural activities in the classroom. The sugar skull coloring sheets can be used for mask making and the skeleton is great for party games like "Pin the Femur on the Host."
