This size works great for children aged 2-8. Children under 2 should not wear a mask, and children older than 8 should wear an adult sized one. I've updated the post with this info too!

Without this, the masks often fall down or are difficult to wear with glasses. It's an added feature for comfort that makes this mask design a bit of an "upgrade" from the ones with just fabric and elastic only.Slice of Pihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10699105122578141913noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6327645006454111334.post-53502160227720242062020-04-04T07:29:27.934-05:002020-04-04T07:29:27.934-05:00I have heard some saying the same.

Re-using the same mask without washing in-between really increases the chances of spreading germs from touching the mask and putting it back on your face. There are lots of different patterns and tutorials on the web so everyone can find the kind that works for their needs!Slice of Pihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10699105122578141913noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6327645006454111334.post-66622895336910456072020-04-03T21:30:39.726-05:002020-04-03T21:30:39.726-05:00You bend it against the bridge ov your nose so tha...You bend it against the bridge ov your nose so that the mask seals across the face.

Why are they used inside the mask? And how exactly are they placed in the mask? Just wondering.Joyce Carterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13231762679528853851noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6327645006454111334.post-86517314814617727972020-03-24T23:17:13.522-05:002020-03-24T23:17:13.522-05:00Awesome!!!

The nurse I talked to asked that the masks have a solid on one side and a print on the other...I guess they were leaving the masks in the patient's room and reusing them. They needed to be able to tell which side was on the outside easily when they came back in the room. I love seeing all the masks that everyone is making!Farm Quilterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01670652033638218941noreply@blogger.com
