There are many kinds of puppets, but here's the kind I make in 10 easy steps. You will need:

  • Felt
  • Patterned Cloth
  • Googly Eyes
  • Yarn
  • a Hot Glue Gun
  • Scissors
  • Spray Paint
  • 1 Paper Plate

1. Cut out a large rectangle from the cloth - it can be any color or any pattern.

2. Hot glue the ends of the rectangle together to make a cylinder shape.

3. Cut out 2 arm & hand shapes, two long rectangles, 2 small circles, 1 large circle, and a half circle half the size of the large circle from the foam.

4. Now you cut 4 slits in the front of the cloth, 2 towards the top, 2 towards the bottom, and heat up the hot glue gun! you insert each arm into a slit slightly deep, and glue the remaining cloth to them.

5. After the arms are glued, take each small circle and glue it to the bottom of a long rectangle.

6. Then, glue the finished legs into the bottom slots.

7. Finally, to construct the head, fold the paper plate in half.

8. Glue half the rim to the front rim of the large circle, and the other half to the front rim of the half circle.

9. Glue the back rim of the half circle to the front of the cloth, and the back rim of the large circle to the back of the cloth.
