Fun Foam Cat Mask

Here are instructions for making a fun foam cat mask. As an alternative to fun foam, you could also print the mask template onto plain card and let your child colour it in.

This is a great Halloween craft for making a dressing up outfit such as a Catwoman fancy dress costume - just use black fun foam for making the cat mask.

You will need:

Fun foam
Scissors
PVA glue
Pipe cleaners
Elastic or lolly stick



Using a template, draw the mask shape onto a piece of fun foam. Cut it out.



Add stripes or other markings to your cat (optional) and pink fun foam to form the inside of the ears and the nose.



Glue on four pipe cleaners to form the whiskers.



Make a hole on each side of the mask (a hole punch is ideal for this, if you have one) and thread some elastic through.

Alternatively, if your child is like mine and doesn't like their masks being held in place by elastic, fix a lolly stick to the back of the mask with glue or tape so the mask can easily be held up to the face.
