Dora The Explorer toy using Toilet Roll

Hihi:) I got this idea from a website http://www.dltk-kids.com/crafts/cartoons/mdora.html.
Its a cool site where we can get n number of ideas..
I was having an idea to create Dora for such a long time but i wa in search for toilet rolls..Finally i managed to get nearly 5 to 6 toilet rolls.You can make any toy out of this..i made Dora as my kid likes her a lot..Below are the instructions to make Dora

1. Draw Dora's dress+ Hands + Shoes + Face +Backpack on a white sheet on paper. You can draw by seeing the templates .This is an economic way as we dont have to spent on our print catridge
Bit costly way is to take the print of the same from the website mentioned above..better to use thick paper as this will last longer or take normal paper and stick it to thick paper which we normally get as suppliments with magazines.

2. Cut out the parts







3. Colour the parts if you have used the economic way..
Dress to be coloured -Pink +Red & Brown
Hands - Brown + Pink colour for sleeves
Shoes -White + Yellow color for socks
Backpack - Violet color
Face - Brown + Red mouth + brown eyes + Black Hair

4. Take a toilet roll and stick the dress part first.You can use cello tape also..Now stick the shoes and add the backpack over it.Fix hands and face..

5.Now Dora is ready for your use:)




Note:- you can use sketch pencil for more effective colors as crayons cant give that much clarity..i used crayons as i gave the pictures to my kid and she coloured it for me
