In this section of my blog you can download animal masks for kids for free.

They are suitable for both home role-playing games and games in kindergartens and early childhood schools.

Animal masks are often used at children's parties, New Year's carnivals. Children are very fond of dressing up in animals: it gives them special pleasure. The most common children's masks are a hare, a bear, a tiger, a cat, a fox and other pictures of forest animals.

If you are going to a holiday for a kindergarten, sometimes it can be expensive to buy a mask for children, and you will not always find the right one. Paper animal masks can be made at home with your own hands. The templates on our website will help you with this, which are easy to print and then cut along the contour.

A bit of history

Masks for children have become entertainment recently. But the history of this attribute is very old. In primitive times, people used masks to frighten evil spirits and used them for ritual purposes. It will be interesting for children to know that earlier people did not make masks for fun, but only for practical purposes.

Today, children's masks are made for carnivals in kindergartens, aesthetic centers. They are produced in industrial conditions, in toy factories. However, you can make a mask for children yourself, and you will spend minimal time and effort, but you will get great pleasure communicating with the child. Coloring pages can be chosen as the basis for the mask.

How to make them yourself?

Making children's masks with your own hands is not so difficult. To do this, stock up on cardboard, an elastic band, scissors and glue. On our site we look for templates or coloring pages depicting animals. Next, download and print them. Then, together with the baby, we cut out the drawing along the contour with our own hands and paste it on cardboard. Then cut out the mask again. We make holes on the sides and tie an elastic band in them, which will have to hold the mask on the child’s head.

If the coloring pages for children are taken as a basis, let the child paint them himself. It may not turn out too beautiful, but the kid will make a mask with his own hands. By the way, you can make masks not only specially for the holiday: prepare them with your own hands for a family celebration. For children, this will be an additional joy.

If your kids love coloring books, prepare a mask-shaped sketchbook for them. Subsequently, they can be used to prepare for a celebration or a children's matinee.

Coloring masks develop mindfulness, a sense of the shade of color, fine motor skills of the hands, and creative thinking. The kid acquires knowledge about the animal world, because by painting the mask, the child can learn a lot from educators or parents about how and where this animal lives, what it eats. In addition, by making coloring pages with your own hands, the kid will remember what color this animal is.

The development of the child should be varied, especially when it comes to the first years of life. You should not force the baby to sit down to write boring letters or numbers, draw a standard image. Let his imagination run wild. Multi-colored masks will allow children to express their imagination and creative imagination.

Here comes the time autumn holidays in kindergartens. In our scenario autumn entertainment"Autumn is golden"there are two birdies for which I needed to do beanie masks. I decided to look on the Internet for options, there were not so many ideas. The most budget option, of course - paper. I used whatman paper, because it is dense and does not lose strength for a long time. After holiday you can use masks during the year for theatrical activities, in the Disguise Corner, for free play activities with elements of theatricalization. It is better to use acrylic paints for artistic creativity, because, unlike gouache and watercolors, they do not get dirty and do not fade. When coloring, I tried to rely on realistic photo images of these birds ( sparrow - brown, white cheeks are visible, etc.) Only the eyes turned out to be stylized - bright, expressive. The main thing is that my results were satisfied " birdies"The artists.

Eye options birds.

The circumference of the child's head (by the way, the circumference of a baby 3-4 years old is on average 50-51 cm, plus 3-4 cm for gluing.

How to make masks for the performance Fly-Tsokotuha.

Name days can be celebrated by playing the play "Fly-Tsokotuha". For example, in the style of a skit - not to sew costumes, but to designate the characters by putting on masks and hats.

Reread the story and figure out what characters we need.

Fly, Spider, Komarik - the main composition.

Auxiliary: cockroaches, grandmother bee, fleas, beauty butterfly, grasshopper, horned beetles, ant with ant, as well as fireflies, centipedes, worm bugs, goats.

What is good about this fairy tale - despite the fact that there are three main characters, the extras are huge and everyone present, wearing such a mask-hat, can feel like an actor and play a certain role. I usually make props from isolon (tourist rugs), but cardboard ones also look quite spectacular.

Masks - Fly and mosquito

Let's start with the frame. First, cut out an even strip 3 centimeters wide. Narrower ones will not be strong, wider ones look bulky. Length - 85 cm (this is if the masks are intended for adults or teenagers). Ideally, masks should be made exactly to the measure of a particular role performer. But in life, a good isolone mask has served faithfully for years, and the actors change. Therefore, we take the average sizes.

With the help we glue the frame in this sequence. We make an incision at the back of the head, which will make it possible to slightly change the size.

Mask details

Cut out the face of the fly according to the pattern. The color is gray or pink (depending on whether you prefer the resemblance to insects or like more humanized characters). I myself adhered to the stylized appearance of insects. Since Chukovsky wrote about insects, then we will beat their features. Eyes - from green foil, it is better if it is a green holographic self-adhesive film. If you really want to, you can decorate your eyes with long eyelashes and glue lips with a bow under a long nose. Six paws can be made just black, or you can put on gloves and shoes. For elegance, the cap frame can also be decorated with green or blue foil. Wings are made of transparent plastic film. I took a transparent cover for a school textbook - they are sold in stationery stores (I don’t recommend using hard plastic, for example, from soda bottles - the edges are sharp, and we don’t need anyone to cut themselves in the bustle of the presentation). Lay out the veins on the wings with narrow strips of colored self-adhesive film. You can draw with a permanent marker, but ... it will not look very elegant. Everything is enough for a convincing image of a fly. If the soul really asks for a beauty and a coquette, there is an option to put on a tiny hat with a veil, but I didn’t do it myself - in my opinion, it turned out too much.

Spider Mask

There are two ways to approach this character. Or interpret him as a gloomy villain, then he will be all black and like a tarantula. Muscular hairy paws, a villainous muzzle: frowning eyebrows, bloodied fangs... The frame of the spider was made of dark blue isolon. Long, multi-colored jointed legs in shoes of various sizes, a blue face with eyes narrowed to the nose and a bared mouth - and that's enough - let's refrain from excessive brutality, because this is an old spider man.

The rest of the insects will be made on the basis of a standard cap frame. Ant with an ant: black - shiny. (I describe the ant mask for the whole face here: http://nonsenspictures.ru/maska-muravya/)

We will make the butterfly brighter and do not skimp on the patterns.

Characters such as cockroaches can only be identified with a red color and mustaches, wings and paws will, perhaps, be superfluous. For bugs, I can offer a pattern of wings, here it is important to make the right tucks and, of course, decorate with beautiful patterns.
