The Lion King Simba Craft

Simba Cardboard Tube Craft Printable

He’s a mighty king for sure, Simba the brave lion is a tube craft printable for you to make in your own pride lands. It’s so easy and so fun, just download, print, cut and glue! Have you guys seen the new Lion King remake movie? I haven’t yet but the cinematography looks stunning, it’s truly amazing what they can do with visual effects. I really do love that Disney is giving classic animated movies a makeover for younger generations to marvel at and appreciate but despite these efforts my heart will always be with the original creations. The original animated movies have such charisma and beauty that I don’t think is possible to improve on. So, here’s young Simba as he appeared in 1994.

This craft is so easy to put together you barely need directions, but I will give you the details anyway. I really hope that you all enjoy making this project as much as I have. It’s always exciting to experience the process of creating something like this because when you make art from scratch you never really know what the final outcome will be. Will it be a flop? Will it be just “OK”? Or will it be a hit? Who knows, what I know is that I get such an indescribable feeling in my heart when I’ve created something that I think children and all people will love.

So please enjoy and be sure to share your outcome as well!

Please right click the file and save it to your computer before printing. If you are having trouble with the printed size of the image, make sure that you select "fit to page" or "print actual size" in your printer options window. Do not print from the open window of your internet browser after clicking on the file, your printout will be very tiny!

Directions:

Step 1. I suggest printing out the files on white cardstock paper, it is stronger and durable. Then cut out all of the shapes with scissors or adults can use a craft knife. Kids can simply cut out the shapes very loosely, it doesn’t have to be perfect.

Step 2. Wrap the large rectangular piece around a toilet tube and secure with glue or you can use a stapler.

Step 3. Glue on the details as you like.

And the circle of life is complete! How did your Simba turn out? Isn’t he the cutest? I think so. Let me know how your projects turned out in the comments below!
