Monster Masks ✂️
Materials
- Monster Mask printouts: you can download the printables here.
- Crayons, coloured pencils, or markers
- Scissors: ask a grown-up for help if you need it.
- Yarn or string: this will help you wear your mask like a real monster!
Step 1: Choose your Monster Mask
Take a look at the monsters we have available to colour in. Do you prefer Mank or Malt? What about Mane or Mash? Choose your favourite and print it out.
Step 2: Get Decorating
Now comes the fun part! Grab your crayons, coloured pencils, or markers and start colouring your monster. Remember, monsters can be any colour you want – green, blue, pink, or purple. You can even add polka dots or stripes! Make them as wild and wacky as you like.
Step 3: Cut it Out
With your monster all coloured in, it’s time to carefully cut it out. Ask an adult for help if you need to, especially when cutting out the eye holes. Follow the dashed lines and get your monster in shape.
Step 4: Attach the Strap
To wear your mask, you’ll need to attach yarn or string. Ask a grown-up to help you cut small holes on the sides of your mask. Then, thread the yarn or string through the holes and tie a knot. Make sure it’s long enough to fit comfortably around your head.
Step 5: Show off your Monster Mask
Strut your stuff in your custom designed mask. You’ll look frightfully awesome!
Writing Activity: Mash and the Pumpkin Patch Mystery 
Join Mash, Mane and Malt on a thrilling Halloween mystery in Spooksville as they prepare for their town’s Monster Bash. We provide the beginning prompt, leaving the story open to inspire children to create their own monstrously fun endings. Check out this excerpt from the prompt:
As they wandered through the pumpkin patch, Mash heard a strange sound. ‘Swoosh… OOoOoOooO…’ He stretched his long spaghetti arm out and pointed in the direction he heard the sound from. His eyes widened with curiosity and asked Mane and Malt, “Did you hear that?”
Gather your little monsters, spark their imaginations, and let them help Mash solve the pumpkin patch mystery. To get started, simply download the story prompt from the link provided below.
