Toilet paper roll animal crafts for kids
Paper roll animals are fun, easy to make and cheap!
If you have kids in your home, or you happen to be a teacher and you work with them in school, preschool or kindergarten, you already know kids love to make things with their little hands. It gives them such a great feeling of accomplishment when they turn something so plain and colorless, like toilet paper roll insert, to a new toy they can play with! And if that toy is cute animal, there is no end to their happiness (and playtime)!
This page collects all the links from around the web with kids craft that have 2 things in common - it has to be created from toilet paper roll cardboard inserts and it has to be an animal! I have split them in couple categories so you can find easier what you're looking for. We have here: domestic animals, wild animals, sea animals, bugs (insects), birds and fantasy animal crafts. Inside each category, animals are placed in alphabetical order so you can find easier what you're looking for.
Hope you'll have as much fun using these links are I did collecting them!

Short introduction
into toilet paper roll crafts with kids
As I mentioned before, this page is collection of crafts with toilet paper roll and it's all about animals. Now, what made me compile this page?
First of all, kids of all ages love making things, they love crafting and they love to see what they created. Also, most kids are not really patient and want their work to pay off fast. So, many craft projects here are really simple and include printables that you simply print, give your kids to color and glue to toilet paper roll.
Another reason to compile these lists is that toilet paper roll crafts are really cheap. Most of the things needed for them are already in your home! No need to buy expensive craft kits in a store. Just remember not to throw away your toilet paper rolls!
Additionally, these crafts are really, really simple (well, most of them). For the biggest part of these craft projects, you need simple craft supplies like: toilet paper rolls, scissors, paint (tempera or acrylic paint), glue, paper and printer.
