Meet Paddy the Baby Polar Bear! Paddy loves the cold weather. His favorite thing about Winter is playing in the snow, building snow forts, and having snowball fights. He also loves wearing his favorite comfy scarf to help fight off the chill, so don’t forget to make one for him!

MATERIALS YOU NEED:

-9 mm black safety eyes
-Fiberfill (or your stuffing of choice)
