Cómo Hacer Un Gato de Cartón con Materiales Reciclados

Crafts: Make A Kitten With Recycled Materials

Today’s craft is dedicated to every cat lover out there. It’s very similar to the puppies we made last week, so you will need very simple materials. We hope you like it!

Materials:

  • White construction paper (or any color which you prefer)
  • Your favorite art supplies to paint your kitten (paints, watercolors, felt pens)
  • One black felt pen
  • One pencil
  • One toilet paper tube
  • Glue
  • An eraser
  • Scissors
  • A ruler
  • Optional: scotch tape

Instructions:

Step 1

Paint the toilet paper tube with your favorite color. If you prefer to use colored construction paper, cut a piece of cardboard paper so that it matches the circumference of the toilet paper tube. Then, stick it around the tube. If you want to make a “baby” cat, cut the tube a little bit to make it smaller.


Step 2

Use the toilet paper tube to draw two circles on the cardboard paper. These will be used as the front and back parts of the cat’s body. Draw a tail on one of the circles. This will be the cat’s tail. Use the other circle to make the cat’s head. Paste them as shown in the image below.

Step 3

Now it is time to make the cat’s legs. For this, you will need four pieces of cardboard paper which are approximately 1.3cm x 9cm. Fold each piece in half and paste them so that you are left with pieces of approximately 1.3cm x 4.5cm. This will make the cat’s legs stronger. To make a “baby” cat, you can make the legs shorter.

Step 4

Fold the side of each of the cat’s legs and paste them on the cat’s belly.

Your recycled kitten is ready!??
