Lion Paper Roll Craft

Step 1: Gather Your Supplies

Gather your supplies, including toilet paper rolls, paint, construction paper, googly eyes, a pipe cleaner, scissors, glue, and a marker.

Step 2: Paint the Roll Brown

Paint the toilet paper roll brown and set it aside to dry completely.

Step 3: Trace the Lion Pieces

Trace circle shapes on orange, yellow, brown, pink, and black construction paper to create the lion’s mane, face, ears, and nose.

Step 4: Cut Out the Pieces

Cut out all of the shapes and fringe the orange and yellow to make a mane.

Step 5: Assemble the Mane and Face

Glue the fringed orange and yellow together to create the mane. Then glue the pink and brown circles to form the ears, and attach the black triangle nose to the yellow oval.

Step 6: Attach the Face and Ears

Glue the completed mane and face to the top front of the painted paper roll, then add the ears.

Step 7: Add the Eyes and Cut the Tail

Attach googly eyes just above the nose.

Cut a piece of tan pipe cleaner for the tail.

Step 8: Add the Tail Tuft

Glue a small fringe of orange paper to one end of the pipe cleaner to make the tuft.

Step 9: Attach the Tail

Glue the tail to the back of the paper roll.

Step 10: Draw the Face

Use the black marker to draw the lion’s mouth and whiskers on the yellow face.
