2. DIY Paper Plate Masks

Creating masks is a great way for kids to express their imaginations and pretend to be different characters, animals, or superheroes. You can easily make these masks using materials you probably already have at home.

What You’ll Need:

  • Paper plates
  • Crayons, markers, or paint
  • Scissors
  • Glue or tape
  • Decorative materials like feathers, yarn, or glitter
  • Elastic or string for fastening

How to Do It:

  1. Cut out eye holes in the paper plate and let your child decorate it with paint or markers.
  2. Add extra details like ears, noses, or feathers to turn the mask into a favorite animal or character.
  3. Attach elastic to the sides for easy wearing and encourage kids to act out their characters.
