DLTK's Crafts for Kids Pirate Toilet Paper Roll Craft We're rather fond of pirates in our house.   Occasionally we even dress up like them. The pirate is a cute and simple color, cut and paste craft that uses a toilet paper roll as a base to give it a three dimensional effect. Materials: toilet paper tube, a printer, a piece of paper, some crayons, scissors, glue.

Instructions:

• Print out the template of choice.
• Color (where appropriate) and cut out the template pieces.  I like to make the rectangle look like a red striped shirt with white pants.
• Glue the large rectangular piece on first to cover the tube.

• Glue the boots to the bottom of the toilet paper roll (we did it so it looked like the pirate was sitting down).
• Glue on the head and arms.
• Glue the curvy sword into one of the hands.
• 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).
