La lotería - Mexican Card Game

Mexican loteria is a wonderful, traditional card game similar to bingo. (It uses images instead of numbers). Loteria is also a form of folk art, as each of the colorful cards has an image of popular Mexican figures including "el catrín" (the gentleman), "el cantarito" (the water pitcher), "la calavera" (the skull), "la muerte" (death), etc. Great fun for any Spanish class.
