DLTK's Crafts for Kids Teddy
Roosevelt Paper Doll
Craft
Theodore (Teddy) Roosevelt was the 26th president of the United
States. His most notable achievement was as the first American to
ever win a Nobel Prize -- he won the Nobel Peace Prize and for his slogan,
"Speak softly and carry a big stick." He lived from October 27, 1858
– January 6, 1919. Another fun fact: In 1902 Theodore
("Teddy") Roosevelt went on a hunting trip. At the end of
the day, he hadn't had much success, so a captured black bear
cub (a baby bear) was brought for him to shoot. The
president said no way and the story touched the nation.
Soon a small toy bear was created that became popular around the
world for generations to come -- the "Teddy Bear".
This is a simple cut and paste paper craft that can be done "just
for fun", for a Teddy Roosevelt theme or for a
President's Day theme. |
