How Do You Make Foam Masks For Kids?
Hold an impromptu masquerade ball with your kids after making fun foam masks for each of them to wear. The project is so easy and inexpensive, they’ll be able to create and decorate several of the accessories to suit their mood and personality. Cut a mask template by sketching a shape onto a piece of scrap paper and cutting it with scissors or a craft knife. The template will allow you to adjust the size and openings without wasting foam sheets. Ensure the mask’s design won’t impede your child’s vision or breathing.

Punch a hole on each end of the mask. Measure,
