Lamb Paper Squishy: a Woolly Lamb to Cuddle

Full-color paper squishy template of a sitting white lamb with curly wool and a light face, front and back, printable

Cloud-like curls, a soft face and tiny hooves – the lamb is the cuddliest squishy in the farm set. Stuffed with fiberfill, it feels almost like real sheep's wool. A lovely spring and Easter craft, and just as fun for sheep fans any time of year.

What's in the PDFs

There are two separate 2-page PDFs: the color version and the coloring version. Page 1 has the large lamb with a front and back (just under 3.5 inches tall), page 2 has six mini lambs (about 1.5 inches tall), each with its own back. The back is a curly shape of white wool.

How to make the lamb squishy

1
Print at 100% (actual size); on the coloring version, color face and hooves – the wool can stay white or turn gray, brown or black.
2
Cut the wavy edge along the outer line; it's fine to go around the little bumps in smooth curves.
3
Cover front and back completely with wide packing tape or laminate them.
4
Stack both pieces, tape all around and leave about 1 inch open at the bottom mark.
5
Stuff it fluffy with fiberfill and tape the opening closed.

Safety: Stuffing, tape and small parts are not for children under 3.

💡 Tips

  • White fiberfill shows through light paper a little and makes the lamb look extra woolly.
  • All those curly bumps are the tricky part – preschoolers can simply cut along the white border.
  • Not for kids under 3: fiberfill and tape are small parts.
  • Print the mini page a few times for a whole flock in a group setting.

What kids practice

The curly edge is perfect for practicing even, rounded cuts. While coloring, kids learn that sheep come in white, brown and black. And here's a fun fact: a lamb knows its mother by her voice, even in a big flock.

🔄 Variations & Ideas

Black sheep
Color one mini lamb completely dark – the one special sheep in the flock.
Easter basket
Tuck a lamb squishy into an Easter basket, maybe next to the hatching chick squishy.
Real wool
Glue a few strands of white yarn onto the curly head before taping, for something to touch.
