10 Crafty Ideas To Do With Hamster Coloring Pages
When it comes to keeping your hamster entertained and happy, DIY crafts can be a wonderful solution. Hamsters love to explore, chew, and play, so making their home captivating is important. If your child likes to color these cute creatures, here are ten enjoyable crafts you can make with hamster coloring pages to keep your little creature active and healthy.
1. Homemade Hamster Maze
Creating a homemade hamster maze is a relaxing way to challenge your pet and give them some exercise.
Use cardboard boxes, toilet paper rolls, and other recyclable materials you have at home.
Start by drawing a simple layout on paper. Cut out pieces of cardboard and arrange them based on your design. Make sure the walls are tall enough so your hamster can’t climb over them.
Add small treats at different points in the maze to encourage exploring and make the experience even more rewarding.
2. Finger Puppet Game with a Hamster
Pick a hamster page showing the animal’s teeth in this simple and fun art activity. After coloring, glue the page to a thin piece of cardboard, cut it out, and add two finger holes to the bottom.
Cut the hamster’s teeth to create the appearance of “buck teeth.” After that, pick up some little stones, sand from an aquarium, or even some small balls made of foil.
Spread them out on a tabletop or on the floor, and then have the children see how many they can collect by using the hamster’s “teeth.”
3. DIY Hamster Hideout
Hamsters love to hide and burrow, so a DIY hideout is a perfect addition to their habitat.
You can make one using a small cardboard box or even a coconut shell. Cut out a small entrance for your hamster, and ensure the inside is large enough for them to move around comfortably.
You can decorate the hideout with pet-safe paint or cover it with non-toxic materials like tissue paper. This cozy spot will give your hamster a safe place to rest.
4. Make a Funny Sign to Welcome People
A plain paper plate is the starting point for this simple activity; to color the back, spray it with brown craft paint or use finger paints.
To attach the completed coloring page with the large, amusing hamster face to the paper plate, cut it out and paste it on the reverse side.
With puffy paint or a pen, children should draw two big ears to put on the back of the plate and write “Did Someone Ring?” across them.
We’ll add big, silly wiggle eyes to complete this humorous welcome sign.
5. Handmade Hamster Chew Toys
Chew toys are important for hamsters because they help keep their teeth healthy and trimmed. Making handmade chew toys can be both enjoyable and cost-effective.
Use untreated wood, cardboard, or natural loofah sponges. Cut the materials into small pieces and string them together using pet-safe twine.
You can also add bits of hay or dried herbs to make the toys more attractive. Place these toys around your hamster’s cage to keep them busy and promote healthy chewing habits.
6. Make an Amusing Nut Holder
To begin this creative project, color a hamster that is standing up with its paws in front of it. Once you’ve finished, carefully cut out the hamster, taking care to cut around the edges of its paws.
First, you will need to laminate a regular nut tin with colorful construction paper, and then you will glue it onto the cutout of the hamster.
Make sure the head protrudes slightly above the rim to allow for the replacement of the lid.
Make a charming nut container by taping half of an empty nutshell under the hamster’s “paws” and writing “Nuts” on the lid with puffy paint.
7. Custom Hamster Wheel
Every hamster needs a wheel, but customizing one can make your pet’s environment more unique.
If you already have a basic wheel, try decorating it with colorful, non-toxic paints or adding small, textured materials to the surface for extra grip. If you prefer to make one from scratch, use a sturdy piece of plastic or wood for the base and sides.
Make sure the wheel is the right size for your hamster to run comfortably without arching their back. A beneficial wheel will provide endless hours of exercise and fun.
8. Make a Real Hamster Cage Look Nice
If your child has a genuine hamster as a pet, you can utilize cutouts from hamster coloring pages to make the activity more colorful and enjoyable for them.
The children can create a scenario and select pages that will assist them in doing so.
To connect the cutouts to the sides of the cage, you can use invisible glue or krazy glue. One or two coats of acrylic spray will protect the work.
Adding pom-poms, wiggly eyes, or glitter is another way for the child to make it look extra fancy.
9. Hamster Treat Dispenser
Making a hamster treat dispenser can be a fun project that also engages your pet’s natural foraging instincts. For the base, use a small plastic container or a cardboard tube. Cut a few small holes in the sides, just big enough for treats to fall out when your hamster nudges or rolls the dispenser. Fill it with your hamster’s favorite snacks and place it in their cage. Your pet will love figuring out how to get the treats, providing both mental stimulation and a tasty reward.
These five DIY crafts are sure to bring joy to your hamster and make their home more interesting. Not only are these projects enjoyable to make, but they also provide important mental and physical stimulation for your pet.
10. Make a Funny Hamster Crown
Your child will love this simple craft! Cut out a thin piece of cardboard and shape it into a band that fits the child’s head.
After coloring a charming hamster, the child can cut it out and use glue to attach it to the center of the cardboard band.
You can add pom-poms, tissue paper, or even empty nutshells to the rest of the band to make a charming hamster hat.
