Jumbo Mask

By Saakshi Khanna; Illustrations by Shinod AP

The theme for your next birthday party is Jungle Book and you want to have animal masks. Do you know it is very simple to make these masks at home, from material that is easily available at home. Try it out.

The things you need:
1. Paper plate
2. Chart paper
3. Scissors
4. Adhesive
5. Paints
6. Paint brush
7. Ribbon

Step 1: From the chart paper cut a strip of 1 inch x 20 inches and paint it. After the paint dries, roll this strip. What you have just made is the trunk of the elephant.

Step 2: From the remaining chart paper cut out elephant ears. Paint the ears and leave them to dry.

Step 3: Take the paper plate and cut out two holes in place of the eyes. Stick the trunk and the ears.

Step 4: You are now ready to become a jumbo. Just make two holes on the side of the mask to tie a ribbon.
