Mask Making Fun

4/7/2015

0 Comments

 
Looking for a fun project to do with children?  Mask making can be fun for all ages at different skill levels.  For children, they can be party masks or animal masks for play acting.  Making masks is a fun way to learn about other cultures, create a character or express emotions...or just let your creativity run wild!  For my expressive arts program I bought white plastic masks and then decorated them.  These were mainly done by me but I let the children tell me what they wanted me to add for decoration.  They painted the glue on the masks (very thin craft glue or Mod Podge®), and then sprinkled the glitter and helped me attach the tissue paper, feathers, flowers and pipe cleaners.  These are three of the more elaborate ones that we made.  All of these supplies can be gotten from any craft store or party store.  Many ideas for mask making can also be found on the Internet.  Templates are available which can be cut out for fantasy creatures for play acting.  Even paper plates can be used to create simple masks.  Masks are wonderful for holidays, parties, special occasions or just for a rainy day project.  It's endless fun and a wonderful way to express imagination.
