Help!?
What can we use if we don’t have a black marker or stickers?
If you don't have a black marker, use a dark-colored crayon, colored pencil, or sharpened graphite pencil to trace the crewmate outline and visor, and swap stickers for cut paper shapes or drawn details when adding accessories.
My scissors keep tearing the crewmate—how can I cut it out neatly?
When cutting out the crewmate in step 8, use small, sharp scissors, rotate the paper instead of the scissors for smooth curves, and pause to tape any small tears on the back before continuing.
How can I adapt this activity for younger or older kids?
For younger children, skip steps 3–8 by pre-drawing or printing the crewmate for them to color and use safety scissors with adult help for step 8, while older kids can add fine marker details, layered paper accessories, or more complex background scenes in step 9.
How can we personalize or improve the finished crewmate before taking the photo?
To enhance your finished crewmate before photographing in step 10, glue on small craft items like glitter, foil for the visor, or a folded paper hat, and arrange a homemade background scene with other cutouts to tell a story for DIY.org.
