Chick Toilet Paper Roll Craft

This is an easy cut and paste craft that utilizes a toilet paper roll to give it a three dimensional effect.  You can use a piece of a paper towel roll instead, if you prefer.

I originally made this craft for Easter, but you could make it for a farm theme, shapes theme, yellow theme, birds theme or spring theme.

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

Easter Chick TP Roll Craft

Materials:

  • a toilet paper roll,
  • a printer, 
  • paper for the printer,
  • scissors, 
  • glue,
  • crayons (or something else to colour with). 

Instructions:   

 
  • Print out the template of choice.
      
  • Colour (where appropriate) and cut out the template pieces. 
      
  • Glue the rectangle onto the tp roll.  Then glue on the face pieces, wings and feet.

Alternative Decorating Ideas:

  • Use sparkles, sparkle glue, or felt to decorate.
       
  • Replace paper eyes with wiggly eyes.
      
  • Glue feathers onto the wings and/or glue on a feather tail (you can pluck old feather dusters as a cheap source of feathers).
      
  • Print the black and white template on yellow construction paper.  Print a second copy on white paper and mix & match the pieces.

 

  • 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 in most browsers).
