Fork Painted Bear Craft Idea For Kids

Brown Bear Craft Idea Using A Plastic Fork

This is not a “new” concept per say in the kid craft world {in fact, my son’s preschool class three years ago inspired today’s post} but it’s such a favorite around here {STILL} that I had to make it come to life for the Glued To My Crafts archives! After all – it’s very similar to my favorite PAINT SPLAT TECHNIQUE and just as fun!

So without further ado – here is MY take on the Fork Painted Teddy Bear On Paper kid craft idea! It’s something my son and I recently did on summer break and I hope you are inspired to recreate it too! I absolutely loved the textured outcome on paper and my son loved that is my minimal steps & he didn’t need much direction from me {win win!}

Happy crafting, my friends! Don’t forget to share pictures of your paper and fork painted brown teddy bear creations with us on our Facebook page. We want to see those masterpieces come to life in your home! #gluedtomycraftsinspiresyou

Fork Painted Bear Craft Idea For Kids

Gather up some craft paper, paint and a fork – then let the magic happen as your little ones create something special.

Craft Supplies:

  • Plastic Fork {clean but can be recycled}
  • Brown Craft Paint
  • White Cardstock Paper
  • Brown Cardstock Paper
  • Paper Scissors
  • School Glue
  • Large Wiggle Eyes {two per bear craft}
  • Black Marker

You can find ALL our favorite craft supplies via our AMAZON SHOP link!

Directions:

  • First squirt some brown paint in the center of your white cardstock. You don’t need a lot. Maybe the size of a quarter.
  • Have children take their fork – which is their “paint brush” and spread the paint ALL around to make the fur of their bear. Just make sure they keep the paint on the paper but they can move it anywhere and in any design/shape/angle they like.
  • Once they are done creating the “fur” set it aside.
  • Grab the remaining cardstock and scissors.
  • Cut out ears and nose for the bear.
  • Finally – the last step of this fork painted bear craft. Glue your cardstock pieces and wiggle eyes to the painted piece of paper. Use the marker to draw on embellishments.
  • Set aside to let it dry completely before displaying proudly!
  • You can also change up the colors of this craft to make a POLAR BEAR instead!
