How Do You Make Easter Hand Puppets?
Celebrating Easter in a creative way helps to involve children and adults of all ages in the festivities. Using handy items you have in your house and a few simple purchases from your local crafts store, you can easily make a wide variety of hand puppets. Learn how to make a bunny, the most obvious symbol of Easter, and use the ideas to expand your collection if desired. Find a single white sock. Wash and dry it. Lay down newspaper on a clean, flat workspace and collect your supplies. Heat up the glue gun. Lay your sock flat and horizontally. From your white felt, cut two ears with flat bottoms for affixing to your puppet. Cut two ears from pink felt and trim so that they are noticeably smaller in size that the white ears; these will be the rabbit ear lining and give your puppet a 3D effect. Glue the pink shape on top of the white shape, so that the bottom edges are lined up and the pink ear shape is centered inside the white ear shape. Glue the ears about two inches back from the toe
