This easy Toilet Paper Roll Lorax Craft is a great way to encourage kids to think about the environment & how they can do their bit to help!Have you ever had an incident where your child said something very simple, but incredibly profound? If you’re a parent or have cared for a child, you’re sure to have come across at least a few such incidents. ‘From the mouths of babes’ gets a whole new meaning!The same goes for children’s books and movies. Sometimes, they give strong messages that are quite powerful and relevant in the world we live in. One such book that has had lasting impact across generations is The Lorax by Dr. Seuss!

Claimed to be Dr. Seuss‘ favorite book, it talks about a complex subject like the environmental impact of industries in such simple language. It also talks about personal responsibility – something we adults are very good at ignoring! 

As this is the month of Dr. Seuss Day and Read Across America Day, it’s the perfect opportunity to learn more about Lorax – with a cute toilet paper roll craft! And don’t worry, in the spirit of the story, this uses recycled materials – a toilet paper roll!

As you make this toilet paper roll Lorax craft, have a conversation with kids about what the different parts of the story indicate. Talk about how the Truffula trees represent our environment, and how each one of us has to think about it. Look at the Lorax in this craft – he looks like he’s saying something to you. Maybe it’s that you need to ‘care a whole awful lot’ for things to get better!
