Patterns for A Plains Indian Village

       Both an illustration and a pattern with instructions for a Native American canoe are included below. There are also two native people, a man and a woman, that may be cut out and added to the canoe as well.

Plains native paper dolls for your reconstruction of their village encampment.

       Print and cut from paper then trace around the teepee on top of cardboard to craft a template for young students to use while assembling a village representing Native Americans who once lived on the plains.

A picture of what a Native American village might have looked like on the plains.

Dancing Dolls

Dancing Dolls

Sometimes our Grandma'll call us:
"Come John and little Sue,
Let's see what my sharp scissors
Can find to-day to do."

Then she takes a bit of paper
And folds it up just so,
Then slashes with her scissors
And 'fore our eyes there'll grow

A row of dogs or horses,
Or pretty parrot Polls,
But oh, we like the best of all
The little dancing dolls.

They bow and prance and caper,
All dancing in a row;
They are such queer, quaint creatures,
But oh, we love them so.

I've restored paper doll of silent film star Sidney Drew

If the whole is mounted on light cardboard before the figures are cut out,
 the different parts will last longer and the tabs will not tear so easily
 Color if desired, then cut dotted lines in hats and slip over the head.
 Fold base on dotted line to make figure stand.
      Mr. & Mrs. Sidney Drew were an American comedy team on stage and screen. The team initially consisted of Sidney Drew (August 28, 1863 – April 9, 1919) and his first wife Gladys Rankin (October 8, 1870 – January 9, 1914). After Gladys died in 1914, Sidney Drew married Lucile McVey (1890–1925), and the two performed as Mr. and Mrs. Sidney Drew. Read more...

The Strangely Changing Face

By cutting out the various features scattered around the face in this picture and placing them on it in various combinations, you can make a vast variety of amusing and startling faces. Do not paste the features. Simply lay them on as fancy dictates. There is hardly an end to the funny faces you can produce.

Buster Brown's Paper Bike


      Cut out around the outline. Paste the two sides of Buster, Tige and the front wheel together. Bend up the two lower front pieces marked C on the lines EE, so that they will be at right angles with the wheel forming the front base.
      Fold down the tabs A and paste them together. Then fold up the tabs B and paste them together. Fold up the sections marked D on the dotted line. Fold over the wheels and paste to the section D.

Buster Brown's Paper Sled

      Buster Brown was a very popular cartoon character and also the company logo of Buster Brown Shoes for more than 100 years. I will upload paper toys based upon Buster and his dog, Tige whenever I run across them in old newspaper files. These will all be cleaned and restored so that teachers and their students may print them out and paste them together for fun.
After cutting out, paste the two parts of Buster Brown together. Connect top with tabs A and B. Paste under tab part C. Connect corners with tabs D and paste to the front runners the inside parts.

 The old black and white commercial above was produced many years after the paper toy; it was restored by tvdays.

"Clara" paper doll

This paper doll is "Clara." She was published in 1903 by the Sunday Republic newspaper. I have restored her so that little people may color and cut her out just for fun.

"Thomas" paper doll

Here is a boy paper doll named Thomas. He was included in a junior section of the Sunday Republic in 1903. Thomas, like most small boys of his day, wore suspenders and nickers. His mother kept his hair relatively long for a boy. Thomas would not have worn full length pants until he turned twelve or thirteen years of age.
