Got an empty tissue box? Let's turn it into a cute monster that's as unique as your imagination! This craft is all about making a goofy friend from everyday items.
Activity of the Day
Tissue Box Monster Makeover
Craft your own colorful monster buddy
Things You’ll Need
Empty tissue box
Bright acrylic paints
Paintbrushes
Various colors of construction paper
Scissors
Glue
Googly eyes (the more, the merrier!)
Optional extras: pipe cleaners, buttons, felt, stickers
đź’ˇ Inspiration
Let's Build a Monster!
Paint your tissue box in wild colors. Think neon green, bold blue, or even a mix of stripes or polka dots. Dry thoroughly.
From construction paper, cut out shapes for sharp teeth, curly horns, or whatever wacky features you envision. Glue them onto your box.
The more eyes, the goofier! Stick them above, below, or around the teeth. No rules here—monsters love to be different.
Give your monster pipe cleaner antennas or button freckles. Each quirky touch adds personality.
Why This Is Super Fun
Building your own monster is like creating a new friend from scratch. Each monster ends up with its own personality, whether it's wild, silly, or mysteriously spooky.
Make it extra fun!
Invite friends or family to make their monsters too, and have a monster party.
Use your monsters to hold art supplies or secret treasures.
Each monster can have its backstory. Maybe it's from Monsteropolis or the spooky drawer under the bed!
