Directions

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

Paint a paper plate in 1-2 thin coats of green paint. If you want to make Yoda’s ears from a paper plate, paint a 2nd paint green as well. If you want to use colored cardstock instead, skip to the next step. Let dry completely before moving on.

Place the head template in the middle of the paper plate, trace, and cut it out.

Glue the eyes in the middle of the head, then glue the nose just below the eyes.

Use the black marker to draw on Baby Yoda’s wrinkles and smile.

Place the inner ears on the bottom of the outer ears and glue them in place. Trim off any excess.

Position the completed ears on either side of the head, flip over, and tape them into place.

That’s it!
