With Crayola® Scissors, cut two slits opposite each other, about the length of your thumb, on each of two cardboard tubes.

Cut a piece of light cardboard as wide as these slits and as long as the cardboard tubes. Slide the cardboard through all four slits of the cardboard tubes to form an H shape or crossbar.

Flatten a third cardboard tube. Use Crayola School Glue to attach it to the tops of the two cardboard tubes, closest to the H crossbar, to form a roof.

Cut one smaller piece of cardboard as wide as the crossbar of your H. Glue it to the back of the crossbar and to the Torii roof.
