Moms and monsters. Cakes and calaveras cookies. Dracula and Dia de Muertos. Everything that makes October special and more is included in this edition of SPIDER Magazine. Present your little ghouls and boys with zombies, vampires, and other scary traditions, in a less-than-scary way with spectacular stories, perfect poems, and colorful cartoons.

 

Chances are, kids are familiar with Halloween, but this edition of SPIDER Magazine introduces them to the Dia de Muertos, a three-day celebration in Mexico that celebrates the return of the dead. Many other cultures have adopted variations of this holiday and there are many fun traditions that kids may enjoy. You’ll even find a recipe for calaveras cookies. Your kids will also discover who their imaginary friends should be, spend a day in ghost school, join a zombie dance party, accompany a vampire to the dentist, and enjoy a Dia de Muertos memory game!
