How Do You Make A Paper Bag Puppet?
Kids a little bored? Have them make a paper bag puppet and put on a puppet show for you! • Lay paper bag flat with the opening facing towards you and the flap showing. Step 1 • Use art supplies such as paint, crayons, or pencils to draw facial features on the flap. For eyes, glue on two googly eyes or buttons (or you can draw them on the bag). You can also draw clothing below the flap or glue fabric scraps or colored paper on. Step 2 • Lift the flap up carefully and draw a tongue. Step 3 • Close the face and draw an upper lip under the nose and a lower lip just below the flap. Step 4 • Add hair by cutting some lengths of yarn, longer if it is a “girl” puppet. Glue them on to the top edge or the front of the flap, near the top. Step 5 To use the puppet, put your hand into the bag and place your fingers in the flap.
