Avocado Paper Squishy Template, Half with Pit
The avocado paper squishy template is half an avocado with dark green skin, light green flesh and a round brown pit, free to print. The face sits just above the pit. Its pear shape is smooth all round, which makes cutting easy.
Quick answer
Colour the flesh light green after printing at 100 %. Tape both halves, cut them out and put them back to back. Fill the round bottom more than the narrow top. Tiny children under three shouldn't get it, and the cutting belongs to an adult.

Half an avocado with a pit
Avocados are one of the kawaii fruit shapes people know straight away. Ours is cut in half, so you see the flesh and the pit on the front.
A dark green rim of skin frames the pale flesh. The pit is a brown circle with a little shine spot. On the back you see only the dark skin, as if the avocado were lying face down on a chopping board, which is a nice surprise when kids turn it over.
The narrow top holds only a pinch of stuffing.

How to make the avocado squishy
- Print with scaling switched off and colour the skin dark green and the flesh light.
- Colour the pit brown and leave a white spot for the shine.
- Tape both halves and cut along the outside of the grey border.
- Tape the halves back to back but leave the bottom open.
- Stuff the round part first, a little into the top, and close the bottom.
Avocados look ripest when the bottom is plump. Our paper squishy guide covers each step. Other fruit shapes wait in the template collection.

FAQ
How big is the avocado?
The big half measures 7 x 10 cm. Its small sister measures 5 x 6 cm.

Can the back be the skin of the other half?
It already shows dark skin. Draw a few dots on it if you want texture.
