Hi friends,
It’s that time of year when school shopping and new schedules are regretfully creeping into our thoughts. None of us are ready for it, but it’s inevitable. So this week I thought we’d have fun creating paper backpacks and designing them with colored pencils and stickers. We offer you a few options as well for your own creative backpacks. Check out our colorful backpack design craft below.

What You'll Need
White Construction Paper
Pencil
Colored Pencils
Stickers/Stamps
Bowl
Optional: Ruler or Backpack 1 (front), Backpack 2 (back)
The Steps
Print out your backpack(above) or design your own(below).
Turn your paper vertically and trace the top part of your bowl closer to the top of the paper.
With your ruler draw the sides and the bottom(pointy or rounded corners).
3. Draw the loop at the top and the straps on both sides.
4. Draw a small front pocket and zippers if you’d like.
5. Lastly, color in your backpack and add stickers or stamps to it.
That’s it!
Happy crafting!
Amanda and Naomi
