Materials

Instructions

  1. Create the fur: Pour some brown paint onto a plate. Dip the tines of a fork into the paint, then drag the fork across the front of the paper bag to create textured fur. Allow the paint to dry.
  2. Make the bear pieces: Cut out two ears, a snout, and two arms from brown construction paper.
  3. Add the details: Use a black marker to draw the inside of the ears and the bear’s nose on the snout.
  4. Assemble the bear: Glue the ears to the top of the paper bag, the snout onto the flap, and the arms onto the sides of the bag.
  5. Finish the face: Draw two eyes above the snout.
