Print and cut out the template. Traces the pieces onto construction paper, using gray or black paper for the wheels, blue paper for the windshield and whatever colors you like for the body of the race car. Cut out the pieces.

Glue the small circle pieces to the center of the wheels.

Use red construction paper, or your color of choice, to wrap the cardboard tubes. Then, use a pencil to draw what almost looks like a pocket shape (see image)

Use scissors to cut around the curved outside area of the shape. Do not cut the line at the front. Once cut, pull the piece straight up. This will be your windshield.

Take the blue construction paper shape and glue it to the front of the windshield.

Glue the wheels to the sides of the toilet paper roll. The large wheels are for the back and the smaller wheels go up front. Give the glue time to dry.

Use a permanent marker to add two vertical strips to the top side of the car. These are your racing stripes.

Glue the bumper to the back and you're ready to race!

Now that they've made one, kids can make as many cars in as many colors as they want...then it's off to the races!
