Directions
Start by downloading the Baby Yoda template and printing it out. Once you have the template printed, gather the materials needed for this fun activity.
First, guide your kids to glue the pink inner ear to the green outer ear.
Once the ears are complete, let your kids attach one on each side of Baby Yoda’s head.
Using the green marker, help your kids carefully draw on the little button nose.
Now, it’s time to work on Baby Yoda’s cozy coat. Take the fluffy part and glue it to the bottom of his face.
Next, have your kids glue the coat body to the back of the fluffy top that we placed earlier.
Attach the coat arms to each side, just underneath the fluffy part.
Encourage your kids to glue the green hands to the back of the coat arms.
Grab a light brown marker and draw fluffy marks along the top part of the coat. Then, use a dark brown marker to draw two lines down the middle of the coat body.
That’s it!
