How to make your children look like Captain America: Short instructions
Captain America's blue mask is actually pretty simple. It has the letter A on the front, is dark blue and that's basically all. Even if you are not particularly talented at painting, you should be able to do the children's make-up without any problems. The first step is to choose the right makeup color. You can find special water-soluble make-up paints in craft shops. They contain no fragrance, are dermatologically tested and can be used on the face and body. These special colors also score points with their high coverage. If you still have leftover carnival face paint from last year, you can use it. However, make sure that it is still durable.
You will need blue, black and white face paint. You will need two more brushes - a flat brush and a round brush for the contours.
Proceed as follows:
- First draw the contours of the mask, preferably with white paint. Now is the time to paint the letter “A” on the child’s forehead.
- Now fill in the contours of the mask with blue paint. The mask should cover the forehead and partially the cheeks.
- Now you can paint the details with black paint.

The shield, inspired by the flag of the United States, has a white star on a blue background, two red circles and a white circle. The sign is so popular that both children and adults quickly recognize it. So you can paint it on your forehead or on your cheeks.
