What's in the bag? With the blind bag, giving and swapping mini squishies turns into a game. Nobody knows which motif is hiding inside until they open it.
✂️ What’s in the Template
The PDF has two pages: a color folding template with a big question mark label, and the same one for coloring. Once folded, the bag is about 4 x 5.5 inches (10 x 14 cm) and holds one mini squishy. Print on US Letter.
