DLTK's Crafts for Kids
Toilet Paper Roll Crafts

Suitable for ages 3+

TIP:  If you've concerns about the hygiene of making crafts from toilet paper rolls, cut a piece of paper towel roll or gift wrap tube to about the length of a toilet paper roll and use that instead or roll your own tube using cardboard from old cereal boxes or poster board.

TIP:  Add a popsicle stick handle to the tp roll crafts to make a puppet.

TIP:  Glue a 2" circle made from cardboard or craft foam to the bottom of a tp roll craft to make cute little pencil holders.  (Thanks Monica!)

To turn any of the tp roll crafts into a popsicle stick puppet (without using a tp roll), simply fold the large rectangular template piece over a popsicle stick, pencil or tongue depressor and glue/tape on.  Then glue/tape on the other pieces the same way you would have done for the tp roll craft.

TP Roll bowling:  Make 5 tp roll crafts (any theme) and arrange them like bowling pins, use a tennis ball to bowl them down.  This makes a fun theme game at a party.
