How to Make an Egyptian Pharaoh Headpiece for a Kid
Lower Egypt Crown
- 1). Measure the child's head circumference using measuring tape. Form a rectangle on the red construction paper with your ruler, measuring 1/2 inch larger than the circumference in length and equal in height with your child's forehead.
- 2). Draw another rectangle, starting from the rectangle's middle point and extending upwards. Its height must be equal to the horizontal rectangle's length.
- 3). Cut out the design and round the corners of the horizontal rectangle with a pair of scissors. Apply the horizontal rectangle around your kid's head and mark the spot where you must glue its two ends.
- 4). Make a spiral on a 7-inch pipe cleaner's end. Stick the other end of the pipe cleaner on the inside of the vertical rectangle, between the base and the rounded top side. This way, when the kid wears the crown, the spiraled pipe cleaner will extend above his head.
- 5). Draw a small snake as you would see it from the front, measuring 3 1/2-by-1/2 inches on the yellow construction paper. Include only the head and a small part of its body. Cut it out and glue it on the bottom of the crown's front side.
