Plastic wrap

DIRECTIONS

1. Set out assorted colors of an air drying modeling material like Crayola's Model Magic--colors may be blended by kneading them together to create new shades.

2. Protect doll hair by covering each doll's head with some plastic wrap.

3. Have your guests design "Pepito hats" by modeling the material to fit the heads of their dolls.

4. When the hats are finished, they can be slipped off of the plastic wrap and allowed to air-dry in 24 hours.
