Directions

Start by downloading the Earth hat template and printing it out. Once you have the template printed, gather the materials needed for this fun activity.

Hand over the headbands and let the kids unleash their creativity – they can color them in any way they like and add all the sparkly, feathery, or glittery embellishments their hearts desire. This is where their imaginations get to shine, so encourage them to express themselves freely!

Next, help the kids carefully cut out the headband and two extenders. Then, guide them as they tape one extender to each end of the headband base, creating the perfect size for your child’s head.

Once it’s sized just right, secure the ends with another piece of tape or a paperclip to form the full circle.
