Felt Hand Puppet (Please watch the video for this project! It will help!)1. Choose two main felt colors for your puppet2. Lay them out flat on the table3. Trace your hand in a mitten shape on the back of each felt piece. (be sure to leave the pinky out seperate too)4. Cut out these two main felt pieces using a bubble cut. (Bubble cut, leaves a bit of space around the line you traced on the outside edge)5. Hot Glue these two pieces together. 6. Lay your puppet-mit out on the table7. Cut out other details from felt scraps or add googly eyes, feathers, or gems. 8. Arrange and rearrange the pieces on your puppet9. Glue the details down10. Play with your puppet! Maybe even make a puppet show!
Paper bag Hand Puppet(Please watch the video for this project! It will help!)1. Get a paper bag2. Cut out a cardboard rectangle that fits inside the bottom of the bag.3. Gently glue the cardboard into the bottom of the bag with liquid elmer's glue.4. Let the glue dry completely. (about an hour)5. Using drawing tools, draw on details (I suggest starting with a pencil, so you can erase!)6. Add color7. Add 3D details, like googly eyes, gems, or feathers using liquid elmer's glue (Hold for 30 seconds to secure in place and do not hold puppet vertically for at least an hour to allow glue to fully set.)8. Play with your puppet! Maybe even make a puppet show!
