This funny sugar skull tracing page has a rather large grin, which makes it look a lot less scary than an ordinary skeleton I think. The flower on his forehead helps too. It's great pencil control practice to trace over the lines...
This sugar skull tracing page has a few fun details for the kids to trace over. Younger children can trace in the channels; older kids can trace on the dotted lines.
Here is our simplest sugar skull tracing page - very like the skeleton masks worn during the Day of the Dead parades. It's simple outlines leave plenty of space for embellishments or could be suitable for younger children.
There are nine Day of the Dead tracing pages in this pack to suit a wide age range. Youngest children can trace between the dotted lines with a crayon or felt tip pen. Older children might want to use different colours to trace over all the dotted lines, then embellish and colour their designs.
