Ho Ho-larious Masks
School Mask Pack’s Crayola masks basically broke the internet, and the brand’s holiday masks are about to do the same. Along with five festive masks, you’ll also get 3D accessories — like a fuzzy red nose and Santa beard — that your kiddo can attach to their mask to basically transform it into a costume. These genius masks also come with tags so you can label them, and they’ve got adjustable ear loops for a snug fit.
Embellished Masks
Lele Sadoughi’s the place to go if you’ve got a kid who’s just as much as (if not more so) a trendsetter as you. These newly dropped holiday masks, embellished with dainty pearls or embroidery also come in sizes for adults; you’ll be the most fashionable duo around this season.
Mickey Mouse-Approved
Disney continues to bring the magic of your favorite characters into the world of face masks. This just-dropped two-pack of masks features a Santa Mickey Mouse and adorable gingerbread people. You’ll want to snag these right away; they’re limited edition, so they’re likely to sell out fast.

Holly-Jolly Masks

Classic Plaid
If you’ve got an older kid who’s too cool for Santa or gingerbread on their masks, then this red and white plaid mask should meet their standards. The red and green plaid is a subtle nod to the holidays without being too extreme (or embarassing).
Cheerful & Checkered
If a flannel is their go-to winter wardrobe staple, get them a mask to match. This plaid mask gives off cozy vibes without screaming “Christmas,” so they could even wear it year-round (because you know we’re wearing masks for the long haul). They also come in adult sizes, so you can all match this season.
