Paper Craft Toys

Some students were asking about free printable paper toys. My favourite site is http://www.custompapertoys.com/. Along the righthand side are links free paper toys and to more papercraft sites.

Lucinda Nettleswraith was found on http://rememberthelittleguy.com/ But she's not there anymore. Her friends are.

More friends are at http://www.readymech.com/ too.

Or just google "paper toys" and have a look.
