Have your child tear purple paper into small pieces. Then, using your template as a guide, have them glue the torn purple paper onto the vampire’s face.
Next, grab the black paper and have your child tear it into small pieces. Then, help them glue the torn black paper onto the hair section of the vampire outline.
Tear some white paper into pieces and help your child glue them onto the neck outline.
Hand your child the torn black paper and let them glue the pieces down to build the vampire’s suit.
Now for the vampire’s dramatic red cloak! Tear the red paper into smaller pieces and let your child glue them onto the cloak outline.
Look for the eye pieces and glue them onto the vampire’s face to bring it to life.
Glue the mouth piece below the eyes to give your vampire a friendly little smile.
Next, glue the tongue to the lower part of the mouth.
What’s a vampire without its iconic fangs? Help your kids glue each fang onto the top of the vampire’s mouth.
Finish off your vampire’s look by helping your kids glue the bowtie onto its neck.
Grab a marker and draw the vampire’s nose. This small detail really adds personality to its face.
For the final touch, add the eyebrows to the vampire’s face. A few simple strokes make it look extra playful and full of character.
