Polar Bear Paper Squishy Template with a Scarf
The polar bear paper squishy template is a white polar bear head with round ears, a pale muzzle and a black nose. It wears a red scarf with white stripes, and it's free to print. It blushes with two pink cheeks. Mostly white, it's cheap to print.
Quick answer
Print it at 100 % and colour the scarf red. Tape both halves, cut along the grey line and join them. Stuff the head round. A grown-up cuts, and paper bears aren't for under-threes.

A polar bear in a scarf
Polar bears are the winter version of a teddy. Ours keeps warm with a scarf.

The head is white with round ears and a pale muzzle. The red scarf with white stripes wraps round below the chin. On the back the scarf returns on a plain white head, and since there's so little to colour, this is a good template for the youngest in a group to finish quickly.
Round ears. Easy cuts.
