Easy-to-follow instructions and diagrams for making three 8-inch-high figures representing Indian gods, spirits, and departed ancestors. Brightly costumed paper dolls depict Eagle, with large black-tipped wings; Crow Mother, wearing a headdress of black feathers; and Pussy Willow, an ominous male figure with sharp-tipped horns that belie his tranquil title.

Children will experience the magic and excitement of Africa with these exciting punch-out masks. Features 6 masks, including a hyena mask, a Bateke mask and Bakuba dance mask - all ideal for parties, Halloween fun scouting programs and much more. No scissors needed for assembly.

Unusual disguises, based on authentic Indian artifacts, depict an all-gold Chimú mask (Peru, A.D. 1200); the ferocious Bear Spirit (Klukwan, Alaska, A.D. 1800–1850); the curious Rim Dweller (Iroquois, 1920); the feather-capped Earth and Sky Being (Zuni, New Mexico, 1925) and two others. No scissors needed. Just punch out, attach a string and wear.
