3. Using the paint tube lid, trace five circles onto the black card
4. You should have five large circlces, 2 medium sized circles and two small circles.

7. Cut out the two white circles
8. Next with the pink piece of paper use a coin to trace two circles.
9. Cut out the two pink circles
10. Now with a paper plate, use a pencil to draw a curve. Make this curve around 7cm long.
11. Take a paper knife and cut around the inside of the paper plate. Use the plate crease as a guide making sure you don't cut all the way around. Make sure you stop at the curve you have drawn
12. Take one large black circle. Use a ruler and pencil to draw a line right through the middle
13. On one half of the cirlce draw a curve leaving a curved strip. This will be used for the smile so make it wide enough to resemble a mouth.
14. Cut out the mouth shape
15. Take a medium black coloured circle and cut it in half. This will be used for the nose
16. Take your paper plate and place it face down.
17. Next you'll be glueing the pieces of paper onto the paper plate so you want to make sure that the paper plate is centre with the cut that you made. The flap should be at the bottom with cut out area to the top

19. To create one of the eyes you will take a large black circle, a medium white circle and a small black circle

21. Glue the medium white circle on top of the black circle. This will be the eye
22. Finally glue the small black circle on top of the white circle. this will be the pupil
23. Follow steps 17-22 to create the left eye. Make sure both eyes are equally seperated on the paper plate
24. Underneath the left eye, take one pink circle and glue it under the eye area but slightly further to the left
25. Do the same for the right pink circle
26. Take a large black circle and glue half of the shape.
27. This circle will be used for the right ear so glue the shape underneath the paper plate making sure half is sticking out
28. Do the same with the left ear
29. Your panda hat is complete. Now fold out the panda face area and place your head in the hole
