Make this Café craft paper with me
This Café craft restaurant printable play toy shop is so much fun and easy to put together, let me tell you why kids would love to make this simple paper craft in the comfort of your own home.
Why are paper crafts are great for encouraging new skills
Paper crafts are wonderful for encouraging creativity and artiness, as well as developing design and engineering skills too!
Paper crafts are great to encourage children to draw, glue, and paint or colour/color in, along with several other exercises that promote dexterity.
These activities develop kids fine motor skills and strengthen their ability to concentrate for longer time frames.
Paper crafts also help children develop their imagination, help with learning to follow instructions.
Encourage quality time with your children and create memories.
And don`t forget paper crafts are affordable for most people and easy to create them at home.
As well as being extremely fun and your kids get to play with there paper craft afterwards, which is also great to help children with pretend play skills.

How do you make this Café craft?
Ok let me show you how, you can read the written instructions below or watch the You tube video above.
Café Craft Tutorial instructions
So by now you should have your Cafe Craft templates, and downloaded them, printed them off, and have your equipment ready.
This craft could be a bit fiddly for some children depending on age, so I would recommend a adults help with some parts.
Also I recommend this Café craft to over 4 years of age, due to small parts in this craft
Ok let`s begin
Step 1:
You can colour/color this Café in or leave it plain. Cut out the inside and fold on the two lines inwards and fold the tags upwards.
Step 2:
Cut out the floor and patio page and glue the underneath of the tags from the inside page onto the rectangle shape on the floor and patio page. The kitchen should be facing towards the patio area.
Step 3:
Cut the Café front bottom, fold the tags inwards and glue the backs of the tags and stick across the kitchen area at the front, making sure the tags are touching the floor area.
Step 4:
Now cut out the roof and fold the tags downwards, glue the underneath and place this on the top of the kitchen area.
Step 5:
Next cut out the Café front top, fold the tags inwards and fold the bottom where the dotted line is, and glue the backs of the tags onto the inside of the kitchen, so the Café sign is vertical and against the roof.
Step 6:
Cut out the side of the café, and fold the tags inwards, put glue on the front left-hand side up to where the dotted line is, and stick against the right-hand side, and glue the tags on the top and stick to the underneath of the patio area, so these won’t be seen.
Step 7:
Now cut out the back and fold inwards, as this will cover the whole of the back and should hide any tags from the roof, glue the inside the stick against the back, be careful to get the back into the correct place, and the dog will end up on the left side.
Step 8:
Next cut out the storage box, and fold on the lines and the tags to make an open box shape, glue the tags and stick them against the storage box square on the left side hand side of the Café.
Step 9:
Now cut out the boy and girl and fold the tag backwards for the characters to stand up.
Step 10:
Then cut out the welcome sign and fold the tag backwards and bend the end of the tag and adjust to how far you want the welcome sign open and glue and stick, and then your welcome sign should stand up.
Step 11:
Finally cut out the menu and the ice creams and cakes, you could laminate these before cutting out. These parts will then fit into the storage box of the side of the café for safe keeping.
Embellishments
You could also put embellishments on this craft, like glitter or stickers to make your Café shop craft even more adorable and unique.
Also you could laminate the Ice creams and Cakes to be easier to play with.
Your Café craft should look similar to the picture`s below.
