How to make a simple, easy and beautiful brown bear with cards or paper.
This very simple project is perfect for preschoolers learning to write and sound the letter B. B is for Beautiful, Big, Brown, Bear! The concept uses circles of different sizes and it can be done on card or paper. No special skills needed. Have fun.
Materials needed
- A piece of card from an old corrugated card box, or just paper.
- Two small buttons for the eyes. Googly eye can work well too.
- Some paint, a marker, a pair of scissors and a glue stick. *Supervision needed for cutting card!
Steps
- Cut out four circles: Biggest, medium and two small ones. In this project, the biggest was 6inches and the smallest about 2 inches in diameter.
- Cut out another of the smallest circle and divide it into 2 halves. We will use these for the ears.
- Color the circles with different shades of brown and one of the smallest black. Trim off the small black circle at the sides to give it an oval shape. This will be the nose.
- Arrange the circles— the biggest first, medium for the snout, and small black circle for the nose.
- Glue the circles. Next, glue the buttons for the eyes and the ears.
- Use a market to draw a line from the nose down the snout.
- Get creative and add any texture, shades or feel to your completed project.
