Day of the Dead

Day of the Dead is a time-honored tradition in Mexico. Rather than an occasion to mourn those who have died, Mexicans see Dia de los Muertos as an exuberant, sensual, life-affirming celebration, and create elaborate altars to honor their dead. This boxed set includes a 96-page book that tells about the rich history, ritual and significance that surround the Day of the Dead, and a skeleton figurine and altar to help you celebrate a loved one¹s life. The kit shows how you can add flowers, candles, fruit, photos, and memorabilia to create your own unique altar.
