Who else loves to ride their bicycle? We sure do! A helmet is the most important part of getting ready to ride, so we thought we’d help you make it a little more fun with this super friendly dog design. It’s simple to make and fun to show off to your friends! Arf arf!
Important note: these decorations are not permanent and will not harm the surface of the helmet. Round adhesive fasteners are removable if you choose to switch up or remove your helmet design.
Things you’ll need
- Hook and loop round adhesive fasteners
- Sheet of paper
- Large plastic eyes
- Glue stick
- Permanent markers
- Fun foam
- Scissors
First, let’s make your ears! You can use your sheet of paper to draw a template and scale up your ears and muzzle so they match the size of your helmet. Does your dog have big ears? Little ears? It’s up to you! We made these ears by drawing a large triangular shape with rounded edges and drew an oval shape for the muzzle.
Cut out the template and trace the shapes onto your fun foam. Cut out all of the shapes!
With a permanent marker, draw the mouth and whiskers. Draw and cut out a small black triangle shape for your nose.
Add a tongue if you like. Glue the nose and tongue into place with a glue stick.
Here are all of your pieces! Tip: If you don’t have large plastic eyes, you could make some circles with fun foam. Ready to stick?
To assemble, add your adhesive fasteners to the back of each shape.
Stick the fasteners together with the sticky side up.
Press them onto your helmet to stick them in place.
Happy riding! Arf arf!
