A-Z List of the Best TP Roll Crafts for Kids

Toilet paper roll crafts for kids are cute, fun, and easy to make. Did I mention that they’re free and double as a teaching tool for learning the alphabet? The kids and I crafted all 26 animals from free materials that I can guarantee you have in your house right now.

Here’s what you need to make toilet paper roll crafts

• Empty toilet paper rolls (Here’s a 30 pack if you don’t have time to save them!)
• Empty cereal box
• Single hole punch
• Glue
• White scrap paper
• Small scissors
• Permanent marker
• Scrap yarn (for the jellyfish and the unicorn)

You can easily substitute supplies on this list. For instance, paper towel rolls work just as well as tp rolls, simply cut a paper towel roll in half. If you don’t have empty cereal boxes, you can use any other empty food box container in your pantry or even a cardboard box. I prefer crafting with empty food boxes because they are easier to cut with scissors than a typical cardboard shipping box.
