Paper Roll Koala

Time:15 min Difficulty:Easy  

Is it pawsible to find a cuter way to upcycle paper rolls? We don’t think so! Join us in making this adorable koala buddy!

Here’s what you need:

  • 2 toilet paper rolls
  • Scissors
  • Paper
  • Tip: Upcycle an old piece of paper or newspaper instead of using something new
  • Glue
  • A marker

Here’s how you make it:

Step 1: Cut out two squares and two rectangles from one of the paper rolls. Next, cut them into the shape you want for your koala’s ears and arms.

Step 2: Cut out your koala’s belly from a piece of paper. Make sure it fits on the paper roll you’re using.

Step 3: Time to put your koala together! Glue the belly, arms, and ears onto your second tube.

TIP: Want your koala to be a different colour? Paint it before you glue it on your pieces.

Step 4: Finish everything off by drawing on eyes, a nose, some ear fluff, and some paws.

TIP: Koalas loooove eucalyptus! Cut some leaves out of a piece of paper and glue them onto the koala’s hands to give it a tasty treat.

That’s it! You’ve got yourself a koalaty koala!
