Día de los Angelitos, or Dia de los Inocentes, is a heartfelt tradition that takes place on the day before the highly anticipated events of November 2. It is a time when the spirits of the little ones, filled with an unmatched eagerness to return to the earthly realm, eagerly race ahead of the adults, who arrive to join them under the moonlit sky only a night later. On this occasion, parents dedicate their entire day to crafting an ofrenda, a beautifully adorned altar that serves as a poignant symbol commemorating the precious but tragically abbreviated lives of their beloved children. With painstaking care, they carefully arrange their child's cherished toys, tenderly place their treasured photographs, and thoughtfully include their favorite foods, creating a visually captivating and emotionally resonant tableau. This day plays a vital role in offering solace and support to parents who have endured the unimaginable pain of losing their child prematurely - whether through the cruel hands of death, the heart-wrenching experience of miscarriage, or the devastating consequences of an unforeseen tragedy.
