Cinco de Mayo Theme Activities for Preschool

The reason for the holiday of Cinco de Mayo (winning a battle) is not an easy one for preschoolers to understand, so I have made the focus of these activities into celebrating a fiesta, or a party, and also learning about some Mexican cultural customs and traditions. Please be sure to email me if you have any comments or suggestions about this page.
