Print, colour and make some beautiful princess paper dolls, all dressed up for the ball.
This is a fun DIY toy craft for kids aged 6+, although younger kids could make it with some adult help.
Princess paper dolls are a fun craft that will provide hours of imaginative play once kids are done with the colouring and making part.
And what could be more important than play for kids?
It’s a great way to develop creative thinking, storytelling skills, practice roleplay and communication skills, and more. Better still, this is something that kids do because they want to, not because we sit them down at a desk and tell them to.
These princesses are similar to our paper fairy dolls. They come in line art and are very easy to make.
The finished dolls make cute decorations as well as DIY toys.
My teen daughter helped me to colour these gorgeous girls in. There are six princesses in the set to make, so it’s quite a lot of colouring, but worth it in the end, haha.
Most marker sets don’t include realistic skin colours. To get a good range of skin tone options for our paper dolls, we used this set of skin tone specific sharpies.
Cardstock is recommended for this craft for sturdiness.
