Masks - The Mitten by Jan Brett

About a month ago, I hosted a playdate/storytime.
The theme was Snow, so of course we had to read:
To keep the kids' attention, I made masks for each of the animals that squeeze themselves into the mitten.
Of course, I was too busy reading the book to take pictures so I only have a few that my kids were willing to model for me.

The Owl

The hedgehog

The badger

I NEVER let my kids climb in trees, so they couldnt believe their ears when I asked them to get up there!  Not the greatest pic, but they thought it was fun!

One thing I learned when making these masks: MAKE THE EYEHOLES BIGGER!  Nothings worse than a mask that keeps slipping and covering your eyes!
