Creativity Street Die Cut Mardi Gras Paper Masks, Assorted Designs, 24 Pack (AC4651) , White

Daughter loved these, but the paper is super slippery, so hard for paint to stick.

My 4 year old loves these. Colored pencils and crayons do not mark well, as the card stock is a bit shiny. Watercolor paints bead up in some areas, but are overall okay. Permanent markers, glitter glue, and watercolor pencils are the way to go with these. We tied them with yarn and they have lasted multiple playtimes.

I was a little concerned that the masks would not hold up to the rough handling that can sometimes happen when young elementary school children are involved. I was pleasantly surprised when they worked great for our all school mask decorating contest. We attached a length of yarn on each side, handed the masks out and let the children get creative. Some of the finished products were absolutely beautiful. Our student council has decided to do this contest every year. I hope these masks continue to be available; they were perfect for the job.

A little too easy to tear when being detached from the sheets, and a little thinner than I expected. Otherwise, they're great for children's art projects! We used these to make masks for Purim (a Jewish holiday), and except for the ones that tore as they pulled them out from the sheets, they came out beautifully.One note: the finish is slick, so use markers, not colored pencils or crayons, on the paper.

Love

Kids LOVE to color and decorate these masks. Take care when punching these masks out from the sheets, as they do tend to rip a bit. Totally worth it, at this price. You'll need to provide the elastic or string for the back.

Giving only 3 stars because it doesn’t come with the elastic band. We had to use popsicle sticks to wear the masks.

Very pleased with the quality and variety of these masks. I will use these for numerous projects in the classroom.
