DLTK's Crafts for Kids
Cowboy TP Roll Craft

I'm extremely proud of this craft (in a mommy sort of way).  Tasha (my almost 6 year old) designed it!  She even did all the clicking to arrange the pages on the computer.  She computer coloured in the design (choosing the colours herself) and then turned it all black and white for that version.  I was amazed with how well she did (er, it was easier to teach her than it was to teach Grandma... shhhh, don't tell!).

Materials:

The craft is made with a
bullet toilet paper tube
bullet a printer
bullet a piece of paper
bullet some crayons
bulletscissors
bullet and glue.

( I always prefer to use a heavy paper (like construction paper), but it isn't necessary)

 

 

Directions:
   

bulletPrint out the template of choice.
 
bulletColour (where appropriate) and cut out the template pieces. 
 
bulletGlue the large rectangular piece on first to cover the tube.  (On the colour template, the blue part is meant to be the pants and the red part is meant to be the shirt)
 
bulletGlue on the head, arms, and boots.
 
bullet"Decorate" as a cowboy with hat, scarf and guitar.
