A beautiful Mexican tradition spanning hundreds of years.
Originating with the Huichol people in the Sierra Madre Mountains of Mexico, the Ojo de Dios-God's Eye-carries centuries of meaning, blessing, and prayer.
Through the story of Kuka and his family, discover how this sacred tradition was born in ancient mountains and transformed when Spanish explorers arrived in the New World.
Today, families throughout Mexico and Puerto Rico continue this rich tradition during Christmas, weaving colorful yarn into gifts filled with hope, protection, and love.
Each color tells a story. Each layer carries a prayer. Each Ojo de Dios becomes a timeless gift from the heart.
Young readers will:
- Discover the Huichol origin of Ojo de Dios
- Learn about cultural traditions that evolve over time
- Understand the symbolism of colors and directions
- Explore Christmas traditions in Mexico and Puerto Rico
Create your own Ojo de Dios! Includes step-by-step craft instructions inside.
