DIY Disney’s Moana Inspired Paper Doll (with Free Printable template)

Sharing is caring!

Are you looking for a fun Disney’s Moana Themed Craft to do with your kids?

Moana is a Disney Princess Movie that is as powerful as it is entertaining. Moana is the daughter of the chieftain and future leader of her island people. She is called by the ocean to go on a quest to return the heart of Te Fiti and bring balance to the islands.

And so Moana leaves her island home to embark on a perilous journey to find the Demi-God Maui who she needed to fulfill her quest. Thanks to Moana’s determination, courage, and in the end empathy, she is able to complete the quest and in doing so save the islands and her people as well as one loveable demi-god who had lost his way.

I love the movie Moana as do my children. In fact, we just rewatched it this week for our family movie night. Which is why I thought it would be fun to share this Moana Paper Doll Craft. 

You can make your own Moana Paper Doll following the tutorial below or pin it to your Disney DIY board on Pinterest to make later on. 

Yield: 1 paper doll

Cut out the traced patterns.

Step – 8:

Take the accordion folded pattern and bring its straight end to the width same as the width of the body base and attach it right below the top pattern. Use a black marker pen to draw the eyes, nose and mouth of the paper Moana doll.
