Super Hero Cape

By Sherri Osborn, About.com

Damiana shares directions for making a simple super hero cape.

Materials Needed:

  • A Pillowcase
  • Yarn
  • Paint

Instructions:
Cut the pillowcase into two, on the long side.
Cut the double hem part at the bottom, you will use this for the mask.
Measure the mask for the eyes.
Cut the holes at the two points of the pillowcase and the mask.
Attach the strings.
Give the kids paint and stand back.
On a sunny day this should dry in about 15 min.
The kids will spend ALL DAY running around and fighting crime.
I did this in the morning and they played well into the afternoon.
