Woodpecker Craft

This is a fun cut and paste paper craft using a toilet paper roll to give it a three dimensional effect.
 

Materials:

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

Instructions:

• Print out the template of choice.
   
• Colour the pieces as appropriate and cut them out.
   
• Glue the large rectangular piece around the toilet paper tube.
   
• Glue  tail onto the back of the tp roll.   I glued it to the inside back and then folded it upward (see photo above).  I think it looks nice that way, but be creative!.
   
• Glue the head onto the front of the tp roll.
   
• Glue the wings onto the side of the tp roll.
   
• Fold the feet and glue the tabs to the inside of the tube.
   

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).
