Step-by-step

Step 1

You can see everything that you’ll need in this photo. To decorate the character, you’ll need the edding 14 Funtastics fibre pen for children with a broad nib. The large set contains 18 intense and delicate colours.

Step 2

Wrap the white paper once around the cardboard tube and measure it up. The paper should completely cover the toilet roll tube. Cut away any excess paper.

Step 3

Use a pencil to draw Superman in the centre of the paper and glue the drawing onto the cardboard roll. Next, colour in the motif with the fibre pens for children. And most importantly: don’t forget to add the Superman symbol to his chest!

Step 4

Cut out a cape, colour it in using the red pen and glue it onto the back of your Superman character. And now for the most important thing: draw a star on the paper, cut it out and write “Superdad” on it, before gluing it to the top of the tube.
