Step 1: Download and Print the Free Panda Template

Download the Free Panda Printable Template. You will be stapling the printed PDF to sheets of colored paper to cut out the shapes.

Step 2: Staple and Cut Out the Paper Panda Shapes

Once you have the print outs, staple them to construction paper and cut out the shapes you need.

Note: If you want to make this craft with a group of kids, you can staple the template to up to 10 sheets of copy paper, 5 sheets of cardstock or 5-8 sheets of construction paper.

So, did you know that you can staple together 10 pieces of copy paper and cut out 10 shapes at a time?! That’s my SECRET to fast & easy crafting. Stapling the paper is very important because it makes sure it doesn’t move as you cut. The more staples the better. Cardstock is the thickest so you may only be able to cut 5 sheets at a time.

Tip: While you’re cutting, if you cut off all parts of the pages that have staples, make sure to re-staple the sheets that are left. Whenever you’re cutting multiple sheets at a time, make sure they are always stapled together!

Step 3: How to Assemble this Easy Animal Craft

I recommend having a finished Panda so the children can see what the final version will look like.

1. Start by gluing the ears onto the back of the panda’s head.
2. Glue the black oval eye patches onto your panda.
3. Glue the white ovals on top of the black ovals.
4. Next, either glue on the included eyes or draw your own.
5. Glue the small black circle onto the panda face to make the panda’s nose.
6. Then, use a marker to draw a mouth onto your panda craft.
7. Optional: Glue the bow onto your panda.
8. Optional: Glue pink cheeks onto your panda.
9. Don’t forget to write your name on the back!
