DLTK's Crafts for Kids
Elephant Toilet Paper Roll Craft

This is a simple three dimensional elephant craft that is fun for kids to make and play with. 

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

Materials:

  • toilet paper roll

  • printer, 

  • something to colour with, 

  • scissors, 

  • glue, and 

  • paper
      

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.  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 tp roll.
      
  • Fold the tail in half and glue so it looks colored on each side then fold tab and glue to the tp roll.
      
  • Glue the peanut 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).
