But not only that, there are other recycled crafts for kids too – egg cartons, cardboard, newspaper, popsicle sticks, jars and more!

How to Make a Toilet Paper Roll Frog

1. First paint 2 toilet paper rolls with green paint.

You can also paint a paper towel roll and trim it down instead. Keep the trimmed part if you use a paper towel roll (it will be used later for the feet and legs).

Trace around a small glue stick or another object that is a similar size for the white part of the eyes on white cardstock.

Trace around another smaller circle for the black part of the eyes on black cardstock.
