For the actual templates you're going to need 1/8” thick hardboard, and ¾” (1/2” also works, but I prefer the thicker variety) MDF. Both of these materials are relatively cheap at the home depot or Lowes.
Generally speaking, ½” thick plywood or Medium Density Fiberboard (MDF) is a good choice for template material. Regardless of size or shape of your cut the template must be sufficiently larger to support the router base and provide places to clamp or nail the template in place.
1/4'' plywood, masonite, or MDF (1/2'' or 3/8'') work well for templates. MDF has the advantage that it works easily and sands quickly. The drawback is that a little 'oops' can become a big 'oops' in the blink of an eye. I've used 1/2'' plywood because I had a bunch lying around, but it is hard to work with.
You need a template bit that has a bearing mounted on it to follow the template. If hand routing, you will typically be using a top bearing bit. 3/8x1/2 inch is a good size for body routing. Whiteside, Freud, Amana are all decent brands.

Router template guides fit into the base of your router and direct it along the edge of a template. They can be used to accurately rout the edge of your stock to a specific shape, to rout cavities and mortises, or even to accurately bore positioned holes.
For router-table use, go with the flush-trim bit because, when inverted, the bearing sits above the cutters (below), an extra bit of safety. With a flush-trim bit in a router table, you can see the template edge clearly.
