What could be more fun than 5 little monkeys? Well, 5 little monkey puppets of course.
This is a super easy project and kids love it.
Here's what you need:
- Brown construction paper
- Scrap paper (for hats...)
- Crayons or markers
- Craft sticks
- Glues stick
- 2 circle shapes to trace (one should be slightly larger than the other)
Here's what you do:
- Remember this is for fun, your little one doesn't care if your an artist.
- Trace 5 large circles, and 5 smaller circles. Cut them out.
- The smaller circle is the nose and mouth piece of the puppet. The larger circle is the actual face.
- Find where you are going to need to place the smaller circle on the larger circle, and draw an x on the larger circle (this will help your child know where to place the glue it will be covered by the smaller circle).
- Cut out ears from the left over brown paper. You can draw an x as a guiede for glueing with these as well.
- Okay be brave it's time for the glue. Show your little one how to smear the glue on the x and then place the smaller circle on top of the glue.
- Now it's time for the fun stuff draw on eyes, nose, mouth...use scrap paper to make hats or other accessories.
- Glue your little monkeys to the craft stick and have fun acting out the story!!
Have fun, and delight in the day!! DeeLight
