You can't sorry. Call a builder & a painter & a plasterer.

UT oh! Sounds like someone was playing in the house and needs to get a quick fix. Well even with all of our help you will need the material from home depot. The proper tools required. And the time to get it all done in a few hours. OK.
Go to home depot and buy there 1`X 1` dry wall cut up. Assuming it is this size. Then buy some drywall fast drying mud ask where it is. Buy a dry wall knife to spread the mud with. Buy the dry wall tape. buy some dry wall screws, buy some 1" X 2" wood X 4` Cut hole to the size of dry wall piece of 1`X1`. Then cut up 1"X2" into 16". Place these as backer boards. Split in half where it meets a few inches at top and at the bottom screw in place with dry wall screws. then place the 1`X1` dry wall piece into hole and screw into place with the backer boards. Tape off with the just mixed dry wall mud. Remember this is fast drying and you very little open time (so don`t mix up to much at a time.) Mud it over. Best of luck the time to home depot will be about an hour.

I suggest hang a nice picture over top of the hole and when you have more time take MSG 's advice

Cut the hole square,obtain both drywall and 1x2's approx.
4 inches longer than the hole. cut the drywall to fit the square
hole then put the 1x2's into the hole evenly spaced,you will use these to attach the patch of drywall,and screw them thru the existing drywall then attach your patch,tape with paper
drywall tape and mud with spackle, sand after dry,with mud
less is more. good luck

Just leave your skateboard in the wall and tell your parents it's art.

Hang a picture over it or put something in front of it. Say you were rearranging furniture. Good luck.
