Yeehaw! Get ready to gallop into fun with our Printable Horse Mask Template! Whether your little one dreams of being a cowboy, a cowgirl, or just loves horses, this mask is a wonderful way to encourage imaginative play and creative crafting. With just a few simple steps—print, cut, and wear—your child will be off and trotting in no time.


This horse mask is designed with bold, clean lines and big friendly features that make it easy for kids to cut out and decorate. It’s great for farm animal studies, costume day at school, or just a fun afternoon at home. Want to make it even more magical? Let your child color the horse any way they want—brown, black, white, or even rainbow! The possibilities are endless.


Our horse mask is part of a larger Farm Animal Mask Collection, which also includes our Printable Cow Mask and Pig Mask Templates. Together, they make the perfect trio for a barnyard playdate, a classroom farm unit, or a fun set of party activities. Print all three and let the barnyard adventures begin!


If your kids love horses (or animals in general!), don’t miss our other farm-themed crafts too! From cow coloring pages to horse cootie catcher origami projects, we’ve got tons of hands-on activities that spark creativity and bring learning to life in a fun, playful way. You can build an entire day (or week!) of crafts and learning centered around farm animals.


Creating the mask is as easy as it gets: print it out on cardstock, color it in if you'd like, then cut around the edges. Cut and glue string, and your horse is ready to ride! These masks are great for group activities, rainy days, classroom fun, or just trotting around the living room pretending to neigh.


So saddle up and let the fun begin with this Printable Horse Mask Template! Whether it’s part of a farm-themed lesson or just a spontaneous burst of creative play, this easy-to-make mask is sure to bring smiles, laughter, and a little bit of horsing around to your day.

Step-by-Step Directions to make Printable Horse Mask Template

Step 2: Color the Mask

Let your creativity shine by coloring the mask template. You can use markers, colored pencils, or crayons. Encourage your child to add unique patterns and colors to make their mask one-of-a-kind.

Step 3: Cut Out the Mask

Carefully cut out the mask along the solid lines. If your child is too young to handle scissors, be sure to assist them with this step. Don't forget to cut out the eye holes so your child can see through the mask.


To get started, have an adult gently push the tip of the scissors through the center of each eye. Then, carefully cut along the lines. Alternatively, you can use a hole punch to create a small hole, and then gradually enlarge it with scissors.

Step 4: Attach the Elastic Cord

Next, you'll need to attach an elastic cord to the back of the mask so your child can wear it comfortably. Start by measuring the elastic cord to fit around your child's head. For reference, I used a 13-inch piece, but you may need to adjust this based on your child's head size. Have an adult help with this step by using a glue gun to attach the ends of the elastic cord to the back of the mask's head, near the eyes. Make sure the cord is securely attached and allow the glue to cool and harden completely before letting your child try on the mask.
