Paper Bag Puppets

Paper Bag Puppets

 Very simple puppets made from small paper lunch bags. You can make a raccoon, dog, cat, rabbit, bunny, mouse, pig, panda, or frog.


Supplies needed:

• Paper bags
• Scraps of construction paper
• Glue
• Scissors
• Markers or crayons
• Optional - googly eyes, pipe cleaners for whiskers 

Would you like to start with a frog? 

Here's how:

Make bulging frog eyes by cutting two strips of green paper that are rounded on one end. Fold the straight end under (at the dotted line), and glue on an eye (made of paper or a googly eye).

Glue or tape the folded base of the eyes onto the paper bag.

Cut a long tongue out of paper. Glue in in the frog's mouth.

Glue on two short arms and two long legs, and decorate the frog with green paper patches.

 

NOW YOU HAVE A FROG!
