Wizard's Hat:

- Glue the edges of the cone to hold its shape.
- Decorate the hat with stars or sequins to give it that magical touch.
Animal or Superhero Masks:
- Decorate the hat with stars or sequins to give it that magical touch.
- Paint your desired design, whether it’s a fierce tiger or a brave superhero.
- Attach elastic bands to the sides so the mask fits snugly around the head.
Pretend Play Tools:
- For a hammer, wrap a paper towel roll in foam and attach a small foam rectangle to the top as the hammerhead.
- To make a wand, paint the roll and add decorations like glitter or ribbons.
- For binoculars, tape two rolls together side by side, paint them, and attach a string to wear around the neck.
