Lunch bag puppet:
You will need:
paper lunch bags
scissors
glue
fresh paint
yarn
felt
Lay the paper bag flat to ensure that the foot of the bag is facing you, flattened against one for reds. This will create a little flap. Decorate the foot of the bag with fresh paint or felt cutouts to help make the surface of a face. Produce the mouth within the flap to ensure that you can observe within the mouth once the flap is lifted. You will want to leave just a little lip or tongue peeking from underneath the flap even when it's not lifted. Add yarn "hair" and dress your body from the bag with felt or colored clothing. When it's dry, put your hands in to the bag to ensure that your fingers are gone the flap as well as your thumb is beneath it. Help make your puppet talk by moving your hands and frequent lowering and raising the flap.
Paper bags may also be decorated or utilized as: Santa's toy bag, mail carriers, pillows, televisions, cat toys (just place open, on its side, watching the kitty attack), and other things. The only real limits lie inside your imagination. If you cannot think about anything, hands a bag for your child and find out the things they develop.
