Leprechaun Toilet Paper Roll Craft
This is a simple cut and paste paper craft that is easy for young children to make for Saint Patrick's Day. It uses a toilet paper roll as a base to give it a
three dimensional effect.
Materials:
- a printer,
- toilet paper roll,
- paper,
- crayons,
- scissors,
- glue.
Craft Instructions:
- Print out the craft template of choice.
- Colour (where appropriate) and cut out the template pieces.
- Glue rectangular piece onto the tp roll. The white triangle in the center is the neck.
- Glue the head on the white triangle.
- Glue the belt around the center of the toilet paper roll, so the buckle lines up where you want it (I like it centered under the head)
- Glue the arms to the side of the body.
- Fold the tabs on the feet and glue them so they stick out from the bottom of the body.
- Glue the pot of gold into one of the hands or onto the bottom of the body.
Printable Craft Templates:
- After printing, close the template window to return to the main page.
- If the template doesn’t fit on one page, adjust your printer margins:
• In most browsers: Print → More settings → Margins → Minimum
• Or use Page Setup / Printer Setup in your printer dialog
