So, we decided to make some loo roll monsters. One day they start and argument: the one monster says that “day is departing” and the other monster says that “night is arriving” – who is right (both of course), but it takes a rock throwing fight that destroys the mountain for them to realise this! Great story about seeing things differently and reconciliation! The Craft They talk to each other through a hole that runs the length of the mountain. It is about two monsters, sitting on either side of a mountain. It is great right now for Red Ted (aged 3), as he is starting to appreciate the subtlies of a difference of opinion. ONLY of course do this bedtime ritual if you have child that is already scared, don’t do it with perfectly happy ones, as that may just start an anxiety!! And at bedtime, but them by the bed to keep away any of those scary nighttime monsters – no more hiding under the duvet covers when you have these little guys by your side! Or place them on the windowsill facing outside and image them saying “BOOOO” to any other intruders. Today, we make fab little Monsters… I think this craft is great for little boys, but can also be a great way to help any young child that may have “issues” with Monsters at the moment. Make a silly monster face and glue to the tissue paper to make a monster face.Welcome back to Kids Get Crafty! You know Red Ted HQ and Loo Rolls – we LOVE ’em!

In the meantime, you get another fab “free” loo roll craft right here, right now! I just can’t help myself! Using card stock or craft foam, cut shapes for eyes, nose and mouth. Now that you have your pom pom it is time to decide how you will decorate it.When you are half way through the stack of tissue, flip it over and pull the layers that have not been spread yet, in the opposite direction.Gently fan the sides out and carefully pull back each layer of tissue and pull toward the center.Use sharp scissors to cut two angled sections on each end so that the tissue paper forms a point on each end.Tie a long piece of twine to the craft wire or pipe cleaner.Secure the paper in the center with some craft wire or a pipe cleaner.Fold them together in 1 inch segments back and forth, back and forth accordion style until the entire tissue paper surface is folded like a fan.Lay 8-10 sheets of large tissue paper on top of each other.The string allows you to hang them for all to see. Little artists will enjoy personalizing their pom poms in this unique way. Vary your color schemes of paper and use your creativity to assemble fantastic monster friends. Tissue paper pom poms are so much fun to make and don't take much time at all to master. This craft project is definitely a favorite in our house.
