Cardboard Roll Chick Craft Step by Step Directions
Begin with an empty toilet paper size cardboard roll.

Paint the cardboard roll yellow. Let the paint dry completely.

When the paint is dry, cut the roll in half. One cardboard roll makes two little chicks.

Now, gather your pipe cleaners. We managed to make it work with just one pipe cleaner, but use two pipe cleaners per chick to make it easier.If you’re using 2 pipe cleaners, cut each in half.

With one half of the pipe cleaner, bend into a w shape.

Twist the ends together.

Tape this piece of pipe cleaner to the top of the cardboard roll.

Next, bend one of the remaining pipe cleaners in an m shape.

Twist the ends together. Do same for other pipe cleaner, too.

Then, cut a slit on opposite sides of the cardboard roll, about halfway down the roll.

Insert the m shape pipe cleaner in one of the slits.

Repeat for the other side.

Now, glue googly eyes in place.

Finally, cut a small triangle out of the orange cardstock and glue in place beneath the googly eyes for the beak.

Such a cute little chick craft!
