Directions:
- First things first – grab our free panda printable, listed above in the supply list. This will give you a few features to make your panda come to life on the paper.
- Next, go ahead and find it on your computer, right click and print the file on a single sheet of white cardstock. You only need ONE printable to make one chalk art panda craft today. Print as many as you like but only use our file for personal use please.
- Now that you have the printable, go ahead and color in the various sections of the printable. The only thing I left blank was the nose piece.
- Once done coloring, trim out each shape.
- Discard excess paper.
- Set aside various cat cutouts.
- Now grab a single sheet of black cardstock and your white sidewalk chalk.
- Make several lines going outward from the center of the paper {see our image for example} to make the “fur” for your panda. Add as many lines and colors that you like. You want it to be nice and “fluffy” though.
- Use baby wipes to clean off excess chalk from fingers and hands.
- When done with the chalk, go ahead and grab your panda cutouts from earlier & your glue stick.
- Starting with the oval shape {which is the mouth of the panda} glue the shape to the center of your chalk art design you just made.
- Follow that up with the eye pieces, circle ears and gluing on the wiggle eyes.
- Now add any other embellishments you see fit.
- Then display your chalk art panda paper piece proudly for all to see!
- We hope you encouraged to share pictures of your child’s finished paper panda craft on our Facebook page to admire from afar!
Customize It:
- Please don’t feel limited by us using black cardstock paper for our crafty panda paper pieces. You can experiment with different shades of color of paper to see what really makes the “chalk fur” POP out.
- You can also SKIP the chalk materials {shocker I know since I love chalk so much} but you can also use a fork & white paint like our POLAR BEAR tutorial from last winter. Hint hint!
- What if you don’t have a printer in your home? No worries! You can always hand-draw the elements on white cardstock paper and go from there. When I designed the free printable for today’s tutorial, I went with very basic shapes so my friends without printers can still join in. I hope you still encouraged to recreate our craft idea regardless of the supplies you might have on hand!
