Marshmallow and Cereal Skulls for Day of the Dead

Calaveras de Bombón y Cereal para Día de Muertos

Make some marshmallow and cereal skulls for Day of the Dead with your children, while you tell them about this date and its traditions.

This is a sponsored post in collaboration with General Mills and Walmart.

I want that my children to know about this Holiday and other Mexican traditions, so that they get used to it and do not forget about them.

We usually observe Day of the Dead with an Altar for our deceased relatives, we made papel picado, write calaveritas and tell stories about them.

This time we came up with these colorful marshmallow and cereal skulls, inspired by Mexican sugar skulls, very easy and economical. The best thing is that we used ingredients that kids love, like General Mills’ TRIX cereal we easily find in the Walmart cereal area, right where you find Cocoa Puffs, Cinnamon Toast Crunch and Lucky Charms.

If you add chocolate cream the result will be finer.

Create memories. Kids love to participate in these kinds of activities.

Make a triangle-shaped cut to form the nose and paint with vegetable color.

For the mouth we have two options, you can make four small slots with the scissors and then put some vegetable color or you can make a hole just like the eye sockets and put a TRIX cereal ball.
Place the skull on a plate and add colorful sprinkles on top of the face and head.
