Dr Seuss Thing 1 and Thing 2 paper craft

Select red card for the body base, white card for the head and number label and blue craft paper for the hair patterns. Trace the template patterns on the coloured craft papers and cut them out neatly.

Glue the number label in the middle of the body base cutout. Use a marker to write “Thing 1” or “Thing 2” on the label.

Use a black marker or sharpie to draw the face of the Thing 1 or Thing 2 figure.

Prepare some strands from the blue coloured yarn bundle. Cut them into small strands to cover the blue hair cutout.

Apply glue on the hair cutout and place the yarn strands on the glued part one by one.

Start gluing the yarns on the hair cutout from one side and continue to glue the strands towards the other side of the hair.

Cover the whole paper hair cutout with the blue yarn strands.

Glue the head cutout on the bottom side of the hair pattern, on the yarns.

Glue the head pattern on the top side of the body base pattern.

Repeat these steps to craft the other pair and complete the Dr Seuss Thing 1 and Thing 2 craft.
