How to Make an Easy Teddy Bear

Step-by-Step Guide

1. 1

   Step 1: Think of a design for your toy.

   It doesn't necessarily have to be a bear; it can be a tiger, a dog, even something like a crocodile (if you want a challenge).
2. 2

   Step 2: Get some two pieces of fairly big pieces of felt.

   Draw a simple template of the teddy and then cut it out! Put the pieces of felt together when you cut so the size of the teddy is identical on either side. , etc. ,, Remember to leave a space to put in the stuffing! , A teddy isn't a teddy without stuffing- that's why they are sometimes called 'Stuffed Animals'! Don't worry if you don't have proper stuffing, you can use anything; bits of material or even a pair of old socks! ,, It could be anything- Bubblegum, Cookie, Pinky, Blue, Pebbles or a made up word. , Sleep with it, make it clothes, make it a... den? ,
