How To Make An Adorable 3D Valentine’s Bear Craft
Follow these easy steps and watch as your kids turn a few pieces of paper into a heartwarming little bear. They’ll love seeing the final result and feeling accomplished!
Cut the Paper: Start by cutting two long strips of brown construction paper. These will form the bear’s body. Fold and shape the ends.
Shape the Body: Fold the bottom section of the paper to create a base, then fold the sides to form the bear’s body shape. Glue it together to secure the structure.
Add the Head and Ears: Cut a rounded rectangle out of brown paper for the head. Then cut two small circles for ears and glue them in place.
Create the Details: Stick on smaller circles for eyes and inner ear details, and don’t forget to add a little heart on the bear’s face for extra cuteness. Add a white or yellow oval for the bear’s snout.
Use the marker to draw the bear’s face. Decorate the bear’s paws with small yellow ovals and draw in cute paw pads with a marker.
Make the Heart: Fold a piece of red construction paper and cut out a heart shape. Glue it onto the bear’s hands so it looks like the bear is holding it. Check out the final picture to see how adorable it looks!
