Toilet Roll Town

Turn empty toilet rolls into charming little villages! What begins with a few simple rolls soon transforms into cozy cottages, fairytale homes and tall towers.

You’ll Need:

  • Empty toilet paper rolls (or paper towel rolls for towers)
  • Colored markers or crayons
  • Scissors and glue
  • Egg carton or cardstock for roofs
  • Pom-poms or paper cutouts for decoration

Let’s Make it:

  1. Draw windows, doors and brick patterns on each toilet roll using markers.
  2. Cut and fold egg carton sections or cardstock circles to create roofs and glue them on top.
  3. Add pom-poms or small paper details for chimneys or roof décor and let them dry.

Why We Love It:

  • Turns recycled materials into a fun and creative project.
  • Encourages imaginative play with a homemade toy village.
  • Inspires creativity and problem-solving as kids design roofs, doors and decorations.
  • Perfect for collaborative play—build together and create a whole neighborhood.
