Directions

Download the Grogu template, print, and cut out the pieces you need.

Begin by gluing the eyes in the middle of the head, in between the forehead wrinkles and the mouth.

Use a green marker to draw on Baby Yoda’s nose just beneath his eyes, in the middle of the face.

Glue the inner ears to the bottom of each ear and trim off any paper that hangs off.

Next, glue his coat to his body, slightly below his mouth.

Position the coat collar at the top of the coat and glue it in place.

Place the three buttons in the middle of his coat and glue them down.

Finish off by gluing the icing decoration to the bottom of Grogu’s legs. Trim off the paper that hangs off from the sides.

That’s it! Isn’t this such a cute and festive Star Wars craft?!
