Mouse: Toilet paper roll crafts

M is for mouse! And just for fun, you should read, If You Give a Mouse a Cookie and then make a little mouse toilet paper roll craft! (Psst… that’s an Amazon affiliate link.)

 

The toilet paper roll mouse is very easy to make. Here’s what you will need:

• 1 toilet paper roll
• Scissors
• Single hole punch
• Pencil
• Sharpie marker
• Glue
• White scrap paper
• Cereal box

First cut a toilet paper roll in half. Then, use a sharpie marker to draw a mouse head onto the back of a cereal box. It might be easier for kids to start with a pencil. For the head, draw a triangle with one of the points facing down, then add two circles to each of the other 2 points. Outline this shape with a black marker and cut out!
