Are you looking for a fun and easy craft with your little ones? These Toilet Paper Roll Superheroes are perfect! Not only are they fun to make, but your kids will learn valuable skills like painting, cutting, and gluing. Plus, they’ll get to use their imaginations to create their own unique Lego Batman characters.
You’ll need:
- two paper towel rolls
- paint
- felt in black and yellow
- scissors and paintbrushes
- You’ll need to draw a double form (that is, Batman has four ears, and Robin has two fringes) for your superheroes’ bodies. Trim the back one off, leaving just one fringe and pair of ears. Next, sketch each character’s features. You can print some pictures available on the internet as a reference; however, you can also use these completed characters as a guide. Paint the details in their true colors and allow them to dry.
- Creating the capes is easy. Simply fold a piece of paper in half and sketch out a basic cape shape about 2/3 the size of your character. You can use the same template for both characters’ capes, but Batman’s will have semicircles along the bottom. Cut out the shape, unfold it, and you now have a symmetrical-looking cape!
- To make the head hole for your character, simply trace the bottom part of the cardboard roll on the top end where the head will go. To create a felt cape that is snugly fitting, use this template to cut out your fabric design and attach it with pins. Once everything is dry, put the cape over your character’s head, and you’re finished!
Your little ones will have much fun making their own Toilet Paper Roll Superheroes! And you’ll love seeing their imaginations come to life.
