What You Need
- Free printable template (color or black-and-white)
- Toilet paper roll
- Scissors
- Glue
- Colored pencils, markers, or paints (if using the black-and-white version)
Instructions
Print the template. Choose between the ready-made color version or the black-and-white version for coloring.
Color the pieces. If using the black-and-white template, let children color the fox parts with crayons, markers, or paints.
Cut out the parts. Carefully cut along the outlines: the rectangle (fox body), collar, head, tail, and paw detail.
Wrap the roll. Glue the rectangle around the toilet paper roll to form the fox’s body.
Assemble the fox.
Glue the collar to the front.
Attach the head on top.
Stick the paw detail to the bottom front of the roll.
Finally, glue the tail to the back.
Now your adorable forest animal craft is ready!
You can also make this craft even more unique by replacing the paper tail from the template with real autumn leaves. Simply collect a few colorful fall leaves and glue them to the back of the toilet paper roll as the fox’s tail. This creates an original autumn fox craft with a natural touch. You can find step-by-step instructions for making the autumn fox on our website at the link provided.
