Thomas Jefferson Toilet Paper Roll Craft
Thomas Jefferson was the third president of the United
States. His most notable achievement was as the main author of the
Declaration of Independence. He lived from April 13, 1743 to July 4,
1826. This is a fun and easy color, cut and paste craft that
uses a toilet paper roll as a base to give the finished craft a three
dimensional effect.

- Glue the head onto the top of the tp roll, overlapping the V of
the shirt.
- Glue the arms onto the sides of the body.
