DLTK's Crafts for Kids
"Hoppy" Valentine's Day Kangaroo Craft

What better way to say "I love you mom" than with the creation of this Mommy and Joey Valentine's Duo!

A different looking kangaroo tp roll craft can be found here.
 

Materials:

• toilet paper roll
• printer,
• something to colour with,
• scissors,
• glue,
• paper
   

Instructions:

• Print out the template of choice.
   
• Colour (where appropriate) and cut out the template pieces.
   
• Glue the large rectangular piece on first to cover the tube.
   
• Glue the mommy's head to the top of the tube.
   
• Glue on the pouch and then glue the Joey's head over top so it looks as though he's peeking out of the pouch.
   
• Glue on the heart onto the middle of the pouch.
   
• Glue the legs onto either side of the body.
   
• Fold the tail in half so it's colored on both sides, then use the tab to glue it to the back of the body, giving it a three dimensional effect.

  Alternative Decorating Ideas:

• Use sparkles, sparkle glue, or felt to decorate the heart.
   
• Use the template for the black and white printer on white paper and colour in the pieces with crayon, marker, paint, etc.
   
• Use the template for the black and white printer on brown coloured construction paper.  Print a second template on white paper and mix & match the pieces

Templates:

• Close the template window after printing to return to this screen.
   
• Set page margins to zero if you have trouble fitting the template on one page (FILE, PAGE SETUP or FILE, PRINTER SETUP in most browsers).
