Looking for a cute and simple art project for kids?
Try these fun and easy paper finger puppets that children are guaranteed to love.
Paper finger puppets can be assembled from cardboard or even card stock.
They are simple to make and require only a few basic supplies.
Kids will enjoy drawing or tracing a favorite character and then staging their own paper finger puppet shows.
Storybook characters and animals are good suggestions to spark an undecided childs imagination.
Some children may prefer printing an image from the computer and making that into a puppet.
Either way, they will get a thrill out of turning a favorite character into a special new toy.
Glitter is a fun addition to many of the puppets, especially fairy tale or holiday themed ones.
Kids might also think about adding stickers, scrap book accessories, or magazine clippings that compliment their drawing.
Let the drawing have several minutes to dry onto the cardboard/cardstock.
Then, carefully cut it out with the scissors.
To turn this into a puppet, draw and cut two finger-sized circles near the bottom of the figure.
An adult should help younger kids with this part, since it needs to be fairly exact.
Pieces of cardboard work well for this project.
Markers, colored pencils, or crayons can be used to draw the simple landscapes and designs.
The leftover magazine clippings can also be used for this, as well as any extra scrap book materials.
