Description
Learn how to create fun and colorful paper squishies using basic craft supplies!
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 x colored paper sheets
- White paper
- Black marker
- Transparent tape
- Toy filling
- Small plastic bag (optional)
Instructions
- Grab your craft or construction paper, a marker, tape, and a pair of scissors to get started.
- Either draw your cartoon squishy or download and print a pattern online. Cut out the back of the cartoon squishy in the same outline.
- Draw and cut out the different parts of the cartoon—like the ears and the belly. Don’t forget the eyes, nose, and mouth!
- Once you’ve cut out the different components, tape the entire squishy in place using clear scotch tape. Be extra careful around the ears and other tricky corners!
- Leave the ends of the cutting open—you will be stuffing the squishy through this gap.
- You can stuff the squishy as is, or fill a small plastic bag with it and shove it into the gap you left open.
- Finally, tape the opening closed and carefully secure the tape in place to fasten off. Your squishy is ready!
Notes
- This is a great project to do with kids or as a fun solo activity.
- Be creative with colors and designs for your squishies!
- You can personalize your squishies by adding different facial expressions.
