craft materials:
scissors
pink and white felt
tacky glue
white pipe cleaners
white elastic cord
time needed: about 1 to 2 Hours
1. Start your teddy bear’s costume by cutting ear, cheek, nose, and teeth shapes out of pink and white felt (you can use our template).
2. Use tacky glue to join the teeth, cheek, and nose pieces, then glue white pipe cleaner whiskers to the back of the cheeks. Glue a length of white elastic cord to the back.
For the ears, glue the white felt to the pink, then fold and glue the base of each ear around a length of elastic cord. To make the tail, tie another length of elastic cord tightly around a 2-inch-wide pom-pom.
3. To dress your bear, simply tie the pieces around his head and body.
