Sugar skulls are colorful candy gifts that
are given on Mexico’s famous holiday,
Day of the Dead (or Día de los Muertos in
Spanish). The holiday is becoming more
and more popular in the United States and
all around the world, as people connect
with the holiday’s special meaning of
honoring and celebrating our loved ones
who have passed away. It’s not a sad
holiday, but a festive one full of colorful
imagery and meaningful traditions.
Sugar skulls are super fun to draw
because once you draw the basic skull
outline, you can decorate them with any
shapes, colors, or patterns that you want!
You can draw sugar skulls to reflect your
personality or to honor someone you love.
