What is a swamp monster?
A Swamp Monster is a made up or mythological creature that lives in the swamps, the waterholes, billabongs, creeks and riverbreds. There are different Swamp monsters in different countries, for example the Australian swamp monster, the African swamp monster and the Louisiana Swamp Monster.
You even get a swamp monster in Scotland, sometimes referred to as Nessy or The Loch Ness Monster. Today I’m sharing this fun swamp monster toilet tube craft which can be made around the world! Enjoy!

HOW TO MAKE A SWAMP MONSTER
Download and print the swamp monster toilet tube template. (Print the eyes on a fun, bright color!)
Cut the pieces out and set aside. Be mindful to cut the eyes with care.
Cut a piece of green (feel free to make the swamp monster any color you’d like) paper the size of the tube that you are using. The easiest way is to wrap the paper around the tube, hold in place with a bit of tape on the back and then trim the excess from the top.
You may adhere the paper with more tape at the back or remove the tape and glue the paper to the tube.
Glue the features onto the swamp monster. Cut tiny white fangs and glue on the mouth. Use a pen or marker to draw wavy lines all over the tube.
Your Swamp Monster Craft is now ready to enjoy!
