- Markers
- Baby Yoda template (download form located at the end of this post)
How To Make Baby Yoda
Download the Baby Yoda template, print and cut out the pieces. We love using thick, vibrant card stock but if all you have is construction paper, that will work too.
Since construction paper is so much thinner, if you use it over card stock we’d suggest gluing the finished project to another colored paper so it doesn’t flop around.
Assemble his ears by gluing the pink inner ear to the green outer ear. Repeat this for both sides. If you want, trim off an excess pink paper to make it look cleaner.
Take the completed ears and glue them, one on each side, to Baby Yoda’s head like in the picture below.
Use the green marker to draw on his cute little button nose.
Take the upper, fluffy part of his coat and glue it to the bottom of his face. The little extra rectangular part of Baby Yoda’s face is the part where you can glue the fluff to.
Place his coat body behind the fluff and glue it in place. Next, take the arms of the coat and glue them, one on each side, just below the top part of the coat.
Grab his arms and glue them just behind the coat arms.
You can finish up here or if you want to make it a little more detailed, use a light brown marker to draw fluff marks along the top part of the coat. Use a darker brown marker to draw to lines along the center of the coat.
That’s all you need to do to make this cute and easy Baby Yoda!
Because this paper craft is simple, we can see it being made with elementary-aged children. If you have a preschooler who loves Baby Yoda, they’ll probably need a little help getting things cut out and situated.
