The editable file imports in BoboCreate Free 0.3.19 or later. It uses one of Free's three design places, and its own artwork does not count toward your three uploaded images. Older versions of the app need BoboCreate activated to import it, so update BoboCreate first.

2 mystery spa bags
Pictured steps
A print-ready US Letter PDF
An editable .bobo file for BoboCreate Desktop

Print at true size

Print on US Letter at Actual Size / 100% — never Fit to Page — and measure the 1-inch square before you cut. Bags: 24–32 lb paper or 65 lb light cardstock. Collectibles: plain 20–24 lb printer paper folds and tapes easily (best for squishies); cardstock makes stiffer flat charms.

Make it

Make the Spa Props. Page 3: cut, fold and glue each one — or make it squishy.

Make the bags. Page 4: cut, score, fold and glue.

Pack, swap, open. One person packs and seals the bags; someone else opens them.

Safety

A grown-up should help with scissors and do any craft-knife cutting. Paper pieces, stuffing and seal stickers can be choking hazards for children under 3. Keep them away from babies and toddlers. Use a glue stick or tape — no hot glue for children.
