EASY FACE PAINTING TATTOOS - SETUP & DIRECTIONS

Supplies for Halloween Removable Tattoos:

•  Removable Tattoos (see Fall and Halloween Tattoos Below)
• Unscented Baby Wipes (about half a wipe for each child)
• Extra Water
• Trash can
• Ticket Box & Game Sign
• Table and chairs for volunteers and children
• Tablecloth and decorations (optional but attracts kids to this booth)
• "Example Board" to Show Tattoo Designs to Kids

A Poster board folded in half with tattoos taped on works great

Supplies for Halloween Face Painting:

•  Face Paint (MUST be paint designed for skin application)
• Paint brushes
• Many plastic cups with water
•  Volunteers who have some artistic talent
• "Example Board" to Show Painting Designs to Kids
• Paper Towels for drips and spills

Booth Setup:

Before your festival, organize washable tattoos in a container or envelope and set up your "Tattoo Example Board" or a "Face Paint Example Board" so children know what designs they can choose.

To apply the removable tattoos, you only need about half of one baby wipe, so using scissors, cut the baby wipes in half and place them back into the plastic container.

Next, add extra water to your unscented baby wipes - possibly a 1/2 cup or more right into the container - about as much as it will hold!

Cover your table with a tablecloth (waterproof is best), add the ticket box and booth sign, and have chairs ready for volunteers and children.

How to Run the Face Painting /Removable Tattoo Booth:

Children pay a ticket to have volunteers add a washable decoration to their cheek, arm, or back of the hand.

Easy Steps to Applying for Kids Temporary Tattoos:

1. Remove the tattoo from the plastic sleeve

2. Peel off the clear, protecting cover from the tattoo.

3. Place the tattoo (decoration side down) on the child's skin.
(Note: the skin should be clean and dry - no water, sweat, or freshly applied sunscreen, as these could prevent the tattoo from sticking to the skin)

4. Take a wet baby wipe and gently press on the back of the tattoo for 30 - 45 seconds, thoroughly soaking the backing paper.

5. Slowly peel up one edge of the tattoo, ensuring it has adhered to the skin. You are done with your fast, easy face painting!

Easy "Hack" to Remove Kids Temporary Tattoos:

Our temporary tattoos work great - so great. Once they are dry, they will stay on the skin, even in water, until they slowly "wear off "the skin in about 5 days! Well, that is fantastic, except if Mom wants to take a family picture and Jr. has a big bug removable tattoo on his cheek!

The easy trick to removing Kids Temporary Tattoos is to use ordinary household tape - like the kind you use to wrap presents! Take a 2-inch piece of tape, stick it on the tattoo, and pull it off - VOILA - the tattoo sticks to the tape and comes off the skin with soap and no scrubbing!

Additional Hints & Tips:

Note: If it is NOT windy or breezy on the day of your Halloween Evening Event, go ahead and lay out some tattoos on the table, let the children choose their designs, and hand them to the volunteers!
