Nothing beats the fun memories as making crafts with the kids. What makes these crafts even better is they are all made from something we throw away almost daily. It’s time to recycle those toilet paper rolls and keep the kids busy on a rainy day all at the same time! Here’s a few of my favorite toilet paper roll crafts. Enjoy!
