This is a very cute and easy craft, and there are so many fun variations you can do with it. My kids wanted to draw themselves, but you could make all kinds of characters, animals, robots, or whatever theme you like! Kids will giggle as they swap photos out behind the cut-out frame. Enjoy!

What you'll need
- Magnetic paper
- Markers
- Embroidery cord or yarn
- Glue
- Photos of faces
How to make it
1. Cut the magnetic paper to the desired size. I cut my 8" x 11" paper into four 4.25" x 5.5" sheets. Cut out a hole for the face. It should be shaped like an oval with the top flattened.
2. Cut out embroidery cord or yarn and glue it to the top of the head for hair.
3. Have the child use markers to draw the body under the face hole. Add any desired embellishments. Place a photo of the face behind the magnet and stick to a metal surface. Have fun swapping out different photos!
