This is a simple three dimensional rhinoceros craft that is fun for kids to make and play with.  I thought a horn would be a good thing to hold, since rhinos are most recognizable for the horn on their nose.

Materials:

• toilet paper roll or cardboard tube,
• printer,
• something to color with,
• scissors,
• glue,
• paper

Instructions:

• Print out the craft template of choice.
• Color (if using the black and white version of the craft) 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 on the head, arms and chest.
• Fold the feet tabs and glue to the inside, bottom of the toilet paper roll.
• Glue the horn into one of the hands

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).
