How to Play with Stuffed Animals

Do your kids own lots of stuffed animals? Wish your kids would play with their stuffed animals instead of letting them collect dust on the shelf? Looking for something fun to do on a rainy day??

For a fun time, create a disguise kit for pretend stuffed animal “spies”! You’ll want to change their appearance so their true identities will never be discovered, otherwise their top secret missions could be compromised. *gasp*

Here are some ideas to create disguises for your stuffed animal “spies” that are quick and easy to make:

1. Mustaches:

Cut mustaches from black felt. Attach to your stuffed animal spy with a “donut” of masking tape, if needed.

2. Glasses:

Nothing changes your appearance more than a good pair of glasses, just ask Clark Kent. Bend pipe cleaners into shape to form the glasses, and slip them onto your stuffed animal spy.

3. Wigs:

Another big appearance change can be made with a wig. Cut strands of yarn or thin party streamers, then tie them together in the middle. Attach with masking tape.

4. Super Hero Cape:

Cut out from a piece of craft felt. Attach felt letter stickers, if desired.

Super Lemur is off to save the day!!

Warning: Dressing up your stuffed animals can become addictive, and lead to hours of creative playtime fun.

Have fun!!
