What You'll Need

Felt
Construction Paper
Scissors
Glue
Other decorating materials

Finger Puppets

1. Cut two pieces of felt 4 inches tall by 2 inches wide.

2. Cut the top corners of the felt to round the "head" of your finger puppet.

3. Cut the features of your puppet out of construction paper. These may include arms, legs, tail, wings, hair, eyes, nose, and mouth.

4. Glue the puppet features on to your felt. You can use googly eyes for the eyes.

5. Glue the two pieces of felt together around the edges. Do not glue the bottom, because this is where your finger goes.

6. When the glue is dry, your finger puppet is ready for a show! Make nine more and put on a play!

Tip:
If the finger puppets will be used a lot, the edges of the finger puppet can be sewn to make it stronger.
