Instructions
for making a Viking helmet
- Measure
around your child's head. Cut out a strip of poster board
the length of your child's head plus an additional inch.
(You will need a little extra room once you wrap this
in tinfoil.) Tape the ends together to make the base of
your helmet.
- Cut
two more strips of poster board about an 1 1/2 inches
wide. Tape these two strips to your crown in a cross pattern
making the top of your helmet.
- Take
two styrofoam cones to make your horns. (These can be
found in the imitation floral section of your local craft
store.) You will need 2-3 golf tees for each horn to put
these in place. Line up the "horns" on the poster
board on the section running left to right across the
top. Push the golf tees through the poster board and into
the styrofoam to hold the horns in place.
- Wrap
your helmet in tinfoil.
