The DIY Process
- Print out your all animal finger puppet template that you purchased from Greenpixiedesigns.
- Use your coloured pencils, markers, or crayons to decorate the printed template. You can let your creativity run wild – add stripes, spots, or any other design you fancy. Don’t forget to colour in the cute little noses and paws!
- Carefully cut out the decorated template. Make sure to cut along the outer lines to ensure a proper shape for your puppet, and very carefully cut out the fingers holes, either by making a small hole in the middle of the finger hole or by using a hole puncher.
- Now, it’s time to add some character to your puppet. You can use googly eyes, felt, fabric scraps, or any other decorative elements you like. Get creative and let your animal puppets come to life!
- And there you have it – your very own animal finger puppet! Wasn’t that a fun and engaging process?
How to Play with your Finger Puppet
Playing with your animal finger puppet is easy and fun. Simply slip your finger into the opening at the bottom of the puppet and let the fun begin. Your animal puppet can dance, play, and even have its own little adventures – all at the command of your finger, or create your own little puppet show.
