     2.  Cut out the template of choice and color if necessary.

 

     3.  Glue the large rectangular piece on first to cover the tube. Toilet paper rolls come in different sizes, so if you find the rectangle is a bit too big, just trim it down. If you find it's a bit too small, just cut out another small piece to fill in the gap.

 

     4.  Glue on the head, fire hat, legs and tail (using the tab to make a 3D effect).

 

     5.  This step is optional. To make the dog stand up on all four legs, take 4 toothpicks. Glue or Tape 1 toothpick to each of the legs.

 

 

I hope your kids enjoy this little craft as much as mine did!
