Face Masks

Cut out and colour in your own animal face mask. There are six to choose from.

What you will need:

- some plain card or paper

- a length of string or elastic, or a stick and tape

- colouring pencils or felt-tip pens

- a printer

- a helpful adult

What to do:

1. Print out your favourite mask from the selection below onto your plain card or paper. Card is best for making a strong mask, but if you only have paper you could try sticking it down on a piece of old cereal box.

2. Ask your helpful adult to help you cut out your mask design. You'll need to carefully pierce holes to help you cut out the eyes.

3. Now colour in your mask. You could use the pictures in Explore Wildlife to help you, or make up the colours as you go along. Either way, try to keep inside the lines!

4. Next you can decide how you want to wear your mask. You could ask your helpful adult to pierce holes on either side of the mask to thread your string or elastic through, tying a knot at each end to hold it in place. Then slip the whole thing over your head and adjust until it stays in place. Or you could tape your stick to the back of the mask and use that to hold it in front of your face like you're at a fancy dress party!

5. Show off your new headwear! Why not take a picture of yourself and send it in to us at This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it or Watch, The Wildlife Trusts, The Kiln, Mather Road, Newark, Nottinghamshire, NG24 1WT
