Easy for elementary school kids! Cute felt mascot crafting ideas (21–30)
Tsum Tsum-style Winnie the Pooh

Many children probably like Disney characters.
Among them, Pooh is not a complex design and can be made in a single color, so he’s a great choice for felt mascots.
Let’s make a Tsum Tsum-style Pooh from the popular game! Just create a pattern, cut the felt, sew it together, and stuff it with cotton.
If you loop a ribbon and sew it on as well, you can attach it to a bag as a keychain, or use it as a wall decoration or ornament.
Give it a try!
Kirby of the Stars

Let’s try making Kirby, the wildly popular character with a perfectly round pink body, out of felt! Ever since the Game Boy title “Kirby’s Dream Land” was released in 1992, new works have continued to come out across various media, including games, anime, and manga.
Please try creating Kirby in felt—a character so charming that people of all ages become captivated! If you can capture Kirby’s soft, squishy body just right, it will surely become one of your favorite creations.
donut

Felt donuts that make you want to take a bite.
They’re great because you can use them for all sorts of things—play items, interior decor, or accessory parts! Basically, you just cut the felt and do simple stitching, so even kids should find them easy to make.
Have fun customizing by changing the color combinations, donut types, and toppings you like.
If you make them smaller, they can become keychains or accessory parts, so give it a try!
Smile Flower

This is a felt mascot of a Smile Flower that soothes the heart with its beaming face.
A Smile Flower is a character with a face at the center of a flower, often used as a motif for various plushies and accessories.
Smile Flowers are especially recommended as good-luck charms to give as gifts! They’re sure to brighten the recipient’s mood and gently give them a little push forward.
Try making one for a friend who’s working hard at studying or sports!
protective daruma

A felt daruma amulet that’s perfect for cheering on family and friends.
Because the daruma has a simple shape, even children can make it easily! Make the body, the face, and the lettering separately.
If embroidery feels like a hassle, you can write directly with a pen instead.
Try creating a daruma full of originality with your preferred expression and colors! Sew on an elastic band or ribbon to turn it into a keychain.
It’s sure to delight a friend who’s preparing for exams!
