Toilet Roll Owl
To make an easy toilet paper roll owl craft, you will need a few basic materials that can be found at home.
Then, use these easy-to-follow instructions so your children can create adorable owl friends they can wear on their arms!
Here are the materials you will need:
Materials Needed
- Toilet paper roll
- Brown paint
- Paintbrush
- Glue
- Scissors
- Construction paper (yellow and brown)
- Marker
To start, gather all of the materials needed for this craft.
Once you have all of the materials, you can begin creating your toilet paper roll owl craft.
Toilet Roll Owl Craft For Kids Instructions:
Step 1: Begin by painting the toilet paper roll with brown paint.
Any child-safe water-based paint will work.
Step 2: Flatten the toilet paper roll once the paint has dried.
Use scissors to cut both bottom corners of the toilet paper roll to form the owl’s body.
Then, slightly fold down the top to form a curve.
This is what makes the owl’s distinguishable face shape.
Use the image below as a guide.
Step 3: Cut two small circles from white construction paper.
Fill half the circles with a black marker to make the owl’s eyes.
Step 4: Use school glue to attach the eyes to the toilet paper roll, aka the owl’s body.
Step 5: Use a marker to draw ripples across the owl’s body.
This makes a feathered chest.
Step 6: Cut the beak and feet from the yellow construction paper.
This can be as simple or intricate as you like.
I suggest cutting 3 small triangles for little kids to represent the beak and feet.
Step 8: Attach the owl’s beak and feet with school glue.
Step 8: Cut a circle from the brown construction paper.
Step 9: Now cut the circle in half.
Each half makes the owl craft’s wings.
Step 10: Attach the wing with glue or tape.
Now, you have a fun owl craft for kids to wear on their arms!
