We’re zoo explorers for Zoo Explorers Week of Camp Fun, and this simple animal mask craft will give campers a chance to pretend to be their favorite zoo animal at home. Whether a zebra, elephant, tiger, monkey, lion, or giraffe it takes only minutes to create these masks with pre-cut foam pieces and glue. Not only are these fun to make, they are even more fun to wear!
Let each child choose the animal they would like to make and have them pop out the foam pieces for their mask.
Apply the facial features to the mask with Elmer’s® Glue, using the image on the instructions as a guide for where to place the foam pieces.
Once the glue has dried, string the elastic through the holes on each side of the mask. Adjust the length of the elastic to fit the child’s head, knot to hold in place, and trim any excess elastic.
Let the fun begin! These masks offer lots of possibilities for imaginative play!
