Five Fun Freebies from Fantastic Toys

Pin It

This is the sweetest set of paper toys. It would make a great activity for a rainy day or when the kids are getting a little bored. The shapes are fairly simple to cut out so even the younger children can give it a try.

I have designed two new toys to go with my original set. The Gnomie Paper Doll has got to be my favorite. While she wears a nightie for bedtime she also has three additional outfits to wear. One outfit is for apple picking, another for gardening and a cute little dress she wears while naturing animals.

Also included in the gnome inspired paper toys set is a movable paper puppet, three finger puppets, a hanging mobile and a fun game of gnome bowling.

Only a couple of household materials is required to make the paper toys. Download the set to your home computer and print on 60 lb. cardstock at your convenience. Have Fun!
Materials Required

Cardstock
Scissors
Tape
String
Paper Fasteners
Wooden Ball




Hanging Mobile


Gnomie Paper Doll with three outfits.

    this is all so sweet, they will look good just up on the wall rather than being thumbed by my rat bags.
    maybe two sets will be made :)

    awww these r amazing....
    thanx for sharing.
    absolutely adore the hanging mobile one's.
    a good idea about those is, once threaded, try laminating it with a very broad and transparent tape. it might save some ware&tear.

    Thanks for these cute files! I made the bowling set for my kids. I taped the gnomes onto clothespins to help them stand up better and be easier to set up. They worked great for indoor bowling with a tennis ball.

    Thanks all for visiting my blog. I really had fun designing this set of paper toys. I'm glad to hear so many of you are enjoying them. Thank you to those who have also included the tips to improve upon my original designs.

    The link to the toys will open as a zip drive containing the PDFs. If you do not have the necessary software to open a zip drive you might not be able to download the file. Sorry :(
