Materials:
- toilet paper roll or cardboard tube,
- printer,
- something to color with,
- scissors,
- glue,
- paper
Instructions:
- Print out the template of choice. (If using the black and white template, try printing on brown construction paper).
- Color (where appropriate) and cut out the template pieces.
- Glue the large rectangular piece on first to cover the tube. Toilet paper rolls come in different sizes, so if you find the rectangle is a bit too big, just trim it down. If you find it's a bit too small, just cut out another small piece to fill in the gap.
- Glue the thinner rectangle as a stripe around the toilet paper roll
- Glue on the head and arms.
- Fold the feet tabs and glue to the inside, bottom of the toilet paper roll.
- Fold the tail in half and glue so it looks colored on each side then fold tab and glue to the toilet paper roll.
- Glue the sunflower seed into one of the hands
Templates:
