Aren't my Boys Cuties!?
Literally all you need to make these are:
- Foam sheets--got a pack of 10 (multi-colored) at the dollar tree
- Cookie cutters--I have a big set that we were given as a wedding gift from my little sister, actually! And what a great buy they were, I love them :) Thanks Lanie! And I learned after I opened them that they are are colored coded by theme...Christmas are green, Halloween are orange,etc. Awesome when you want to find just a specific kind for a holiday in a hurry!
A great $9.99 investment!
Or you can always use your own cookie cutters, if you have them (I know dollar tree also carries Christmas and Halloween ones at least--during the couple months before the holiday ;)
Last...
3. Pen to trace the shapes (I traced the inside of the cutters)/
and scissors to cut around your tracings (cut on the inside of traced lines to avoid showing the pen lines on the finished shapes).
Let You Kiddos Get Them Wet And Stick Them All Over The Tub And Walls!
*sIDE NOTE: tO MAKE USE OF AS MUCH OF THE TRIM (IN BETWEEN COOKIE CUTTER TRACINGS) CUT OFF THE CORNERS TO MAKE TRIANGLES, AND RECTANGLES AND CIRCLES IN ANY SPACE THAT IS LEFT FROM ALL YOU HAVE ALREADY CUT FROM YOUR SHEETS! tHIS WAY YOUR LITTLE ONE CAN MAKE HOUSES, OR FACES, ETC. (JUST BUILD THINGS, COUNT, SEPARATE SHAPES...) WITH LEFT OVER FOAM MATERIALS!
*CAUTION: dO NOT MAKE ANY SHAPES TOO SMALL IF YOUR KIDS ARE AT THE AGE OF WANTING TO PUT ALL THINGS IN THEIR MOUTH ;)
