In this tutorial you’ll learn how to make a BOOM buddy – a wee pal that doesn’t need to worry about social distancing….
Materials you’ll need:

- Scissors
- Glue
- Colouring pencils / pens
Instructions:
- Print (or trace) out your BOOM buddy – we’ve got 2 sizes to choose from…
- Colour in your BOOM buddy – decorate them however you’d like! They could have rainbows & smiley faces, or maybe they’re a robot or a friendly monster?
- Cut out along the solid lines. (Not the dotted ones!)
- Fold along the dotted lines.
- Glue the tabs to the inside of the BOOM buddy.
- Glue the arm pieces to the sides
- Decorate! Does your BOOM buddy need a hat? Are they carrying anything? What are they called?
