Steps to Make Your Polar Bear:
- Display your polar bear — Once everything is dry, hang it up or share it with friends!
- Prepare the background — Take a blue or any winter-colored A4 sheet.
- Draw the bear’s face — Use a black marker to draw a big circle in the center of the paper.
- Add ears — Stick two cotton pads (or white paper circles) on top of the circle, one on each side, to make the bear’s ears.
- Fill the face — Apply glue inside the circle and press cotton balls or pieces of cotton to fill it in.

Option 1: Use a small piece of cotton wool and draw the bear’s mouth and nose on it, then glue it to the center of the face.
Option 2: Cut a small circle from white paper using a template, draw the mouth and nose, and glue it in place.
