Carefully cut around the mask and eye holes so your child can see clearly whilst wearing it. If you’ve printed on standard paper, we recommend sticking your mask onto some card and cutting around it to make it stronger.
Step 4: Add your string / ribbon / elastic and you’re ready to become Paddington Bear!
Pierce a hole in the places marked X on both sides of the mask and thread some string / ribbon / elastic through the holes to be able to wear it.
