MiniStamper MiniMask

Why

Creative kids enjoy Halloween Trick-or-Treating with this one-of-a-kind mask they make themselves.


Steps

1. Choose a large piece of construction paper. Use a Crayola® Washable Marker to outline the shape of your mask. Make it wide enough to wrap around your ears.

2. With Crayola Scissors, cut out the mask shape. Hold it up to your face and ask a helper to mark where your ears and eyes are. Remove the mask from your face, then cut a curved slit for each ear. Cut two large eye holes.

3. Decorate your mask with Crayola MiniStampers. Cut additional decorations from colored construction paper, such as ears and whiskers, and glue them in place with Crayola School Glue. Dry.

Safety Guidelines

Adult supervision is required for any arts & crafts project.

Costumes & Masks— CAUTION: When children wear hand-crafted costumes and masks, make sure the crafts do not obstruct the child’s vision, hearing, or impede movement. Do not use feathers, fabric, or raffia on wearable costumes and masks because these items do not pass costume flammability tests. Wearable masks are those held in place on the face with elastic, yarn, or other materials. Keep away from open flames.

Small Parts— WARNING: CHOKING HAZARD—Small parts. Not for children under 3 years.

Scissors—ATTENTION: The cutting edges of scissors are sharp and care should be taken whenever cutting or handling. Blunt-tip scissors should be used only by children 4 years and older. Pointed-tip scissors should be used only by children 6 years and older.
