Popsicle Stick Puppets

Buy a bag of popsicle sticks at the craft store and you can create many puppets!

What You’ll Need

popsicle sticks
markers
wiggly eyes
pom-poms
colored paper
pipe cleaners
yarn
fabric scraps
glue

Instructions

1. Draw a face on one end of the popsicle stick. You can glue on small wiggly eyes, if you have them. Feel free to use large wiggly eyes too!

2. Add hair, arms and clothes using yarn, pipe cleaners, colored paper, and fabric scraps. A pom-pom could be the puppet's hair. Think of alternate things you could use items for too - fur for hair, a small plastic cup could be cut and used as a skirt.

3. Make several popsicle characters and put up a mini-puppet play!

Glue leftover popsicle sticks together to make a mini puppet area. Use a piece of fabric for curtains and you can put on a show anywhere!
