DLTK's Crafts for Kids
DRAGON TALES:  ZAK

Materials

  • toilet paper tube
  • a printer
  • a piece of paper
  • some crayons
  • scissors
  • glue.
     
    I always prefer to use a heavy paper (like construction paper), but it isn't necessary. 

  

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 on the two heads.  You may want to glue the head part of the template onto cardboard first so the heads are sturdier as they stick up quite a ways over the toilet paper roll.
       
  • Glue on the legs and the arms.  Keep the green leg and arm on the green side and the blue leg and arm on the blue side.   
  • Glue the wings onto the back of the tube.
     
  • Glue the tail onto the back of the tube, folding slightly to make a 3D effect.  

   

  • 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).
