Kids Crafts: Easy Totem Pole
Make a Native Indian Totem Pole from a paper towel roll.
Crafts Supplies:
- A paper towel roll
- Crayons, tempera paint, or markers
- Brown construction paper (a few sheets)
- Scissors
- Tape
- White glue
- 2 lollipop sticks
Instructions:
- Wrap a piece of construction paper around a paper towel roll to see what size paper you will need.
- Trim the paper to the right height and width (allow about a half-inch overlap around the roll so you can glue the edges more easily).
- Divide the paper into 4 or more horizontal sections.
- Have your kids draw a different animal head in each section. Put most of the facial details in the middle of each section.
- Wrap the heads around the paper towel roll and glue the seams.
- Draw wings or arms for some or all of the animals. Cut them out and decorate them.
- Glue them to the back of the Totem Pole.
- Glue 2 lollipop sticks to the base so that your Totem Pole stands upright. Hot glue works well for this.
