Being from Ireland, I just couldn’t resist sharing a little bit of St Patrick’s Day crafting mischief with you.
This craft is made with a humble toilet paper tube and scraps of paper!
Your kids will love making this toilet roll leprechaun king and a group of his leprechaun friends for some Paddy’s Day shenanigans around the house.
Caution! Have your kids keep their eyes peeled on this wee fella. Leprechauns are smart mischievous little faeries who’ll do anything to escape capture, even if it means turning them into a frog!
Toilet Roll Leprechaun King
Preparing the materials:
Supplies Needed:
– a rectangle of green paper for the King’s suit
– a rectangle of orange paper for the beard with slits cut all along one side
– two longer strips of orange paper for the hair at either side of the beard
– a strip of gold paper cut into a crown shape
Directions:
Curl the orange beard and hair strips around a pencil or pen to give it a lovely ‘bounce’
Glue the green paper suit, beard and hair into position on the toilet paper tube.
Glue on the crown
Draw little dots for the eyes, nose and mouth – I used a mini brown pom pom for the nose for added cuteness!!
And that’s it!
Happy crafting
