Teddy Mascots
Kids can have great fun dressing up their teddies and other toys as mascots -
either for a real sporting event (dress them up to support your favorite
countries in the
Olympics and
World Cup, for example, or for a holiday such as
Fourth of July or
Canada Day) or for your own events (hold
your own Olympic Games)
This teddy is supporting the American team!
Get your teddies ready to cheer for their teams!
This teddy has one of our Olympic
printables as his badge and will be supporting the red team in our
own Olympic Games event.
You will need:
A soft toy
Ribbon in your team's or country's colours
Paper in your team's or country's (or design your own flag)
Popsicle (lolly) sticks
Safety pins (or fabric glue, or needle and thread)
Sticky tape
Print-out on card one of our Olympic
badges (or design you own), or country
flags
Instructions: Start by creating a sash for your bear by making
a loop of ribbon long enough to slip around your toy’s body (resting on one
shoulder). Join the loop with either a safety pin, fabric glue or a couple of
stitches. Make a hair band with another length of ribbon. Join the loop with
either a safety pin, fabric glue or a couple of stitches.
Rule Britannia Ted! Cut out the badge and tape a safety pin to the
back. Pin the badge on to the hair band.
To make a flag, cut out a rectangle of coloured paper (or draw you own flag) and
tape it to the popsicle stick. Tape the flag to the toy’s hand.
Go Australia!
Canadian teddy supporter For our Canadian teddy, we
made a sash from red ribbon, and a head band from white ribbon. Cut out a maple
leaf from red card (or cut one out from our
Canadian maple
leaf printable), tape a safety pin to the back to make a
badge and pin to the centre of the headband. Finally, add a Canadian
flag. Perfect for
Canada Day too.
