Dumbledore Paper Craft for Kids
Here at Ruffles and Rain Boots, I love making a whiny “I’m bored” into a fun and easy afternoon craft that is more than just the craft itself. Sure, it’s great to make a painting or do sidewalk chalk, but once the deed is done, the activity is over. If you make a Dumbledore paper craft for kids, you’ve got a craft activity that ends with a doll or puppet.

Tips to Make a Paper Roll Dumbledore
- Go crazy! Grab the pattern for Dumbledore here, then make your Professor Dumbledore paper roll doll with an elder wand, a phoenix or a pensieve. Don’t leave Dumbledore alone! Use the template to guide you in making a Snape or McGonagall!
- If the little ones don’t feel confident drawing Dumbledore’s face, explain to draw two circles with a wee connecting line for the glasses, then semi-circles for closed eyes, a mouth and the nose. The hardest part is the smirk and it’s just a little mountain. :)
