How to complete this tutorial step by step?
Materials
To make a lovely dinosaur you will need:
- thick colored A4 paper (300 g/m²)
- a pair of scissors
- a glue stick
- a black marker
A stapler can also be useful!
Step 1
In a sturdy green A4-sized card, cut 3 strips lengthwise: one 9 cm wide, one 7 cm, one 5 cm.
Step 2
Glue the ends of the two large strips of paper together to form two rolls.
You can use glue or a stapler!
Step 3
Cut 2 rectangles of 8 cm long from the last strip of green paper.
Round the corners with a pair of scissors to create the dinosaur's feet.
Step 4
Glue (or staple) the 2 legs under the large roll of paper.
Step 5
Glue (or staple) the small roller onto the large roller to assemble the head and body of the dinosaur.
Step 6
Cut 2 strips of green paper, round the corners and glue them inside the large roll to form the dinosaur's arms.
Step 7
Fold a pink sheet in half, with the fold facing you, and then cut out 3 'double' triangles of about 4 cm.
Step 8
Flatten the base of the triangles and then glue them to the dinosaur's head.
Step 9
Cut out small pink triangles and glue them onto the dinosaur's legs and hands.
Step 10
Cut a strip of paper about 15 cm long and glue it behind the dinosaur to create a tail.
Wrap the tail around a pencil to curve it.
Step 11
Cut out 2 round (or oval) shapes measuring 3 to 4 cm from a sheet of white paper to create the dinosaur's eyes.
Draw the pupils with a black marker and then glue the 2 eyes onto the dinosaur's head.
Draw a small smile with the marker.
Step 12
Cut a small strip of pink paper, round the corners, then glue it below the mouth.
This results in a cute little dinosaur sticking out its tongue!
Step 13
Cut out small colored circles and then glue them onto the dinosaur's belly.
