Free craft projects to print at home, colour in, cut out and fold.
Pop-Up Dollhouse
Room cards that fold open into a little house. Each card opens to an L shape: the top half is the wall, the bottom half is the floor, and the furniture pops out between them. Stand-up people, pets and furniture are included, all at the same scale as the rooms.
Room Cards
Living room, bedroom, kitchen and bathroom, plus a page of stand-up pieces: two grown-ups, two kids, a baby, a cat, a dog, a lamp, a plant and a chair. Start with these.
Advanced Rooms
A front hall and a kids' room with more moving parts: a pop-up staircase, a desk with a shelf unit that rises from it, a platform bed with a step, front and closet doors that open, a window that slides from day to night, and a toy chest with a lifting lid.
Connectable Rooms
A dining room, laundry room and guest room, plus walls for joining rooms into one long house. The dining table stands on legs you can see under, the clock hands turn, the washer drum spins, and the guest bed folds down from the wall. Divider walls with a door or an archway stand between rooms, and end walls with a window close off each end. Works with every room card above.
Printing
US Letter at 100% / Actual size (not "Fit to page"), single-sided. Cardstock of 65 to 110 lb holds the pop-ups best; plain paper works but the pieces sag.
Step-by-step instructions are on the first page of each PDF.
