Juice Can Puppet

Kids love making these puppets for two reasons: one, the juice cans fit so well on their hands; and two, there are no rules for how the puppets are supposed to look.


CRAFT MATERIALS:

Clean frozen juice cans
Construction paper
Glue
Felt
Goggley eyes
Assorted decorations (buttons, feathers, sequins, etc.)

Time needed: Under 1 Hour
1. Cover the juice can by gluing on construction paper or fabric, then place the can upright on a table (with the opening at the bottom).

2. Glue felt arm strips midway down both sides of the can and leg strips to the front of the lower edge.

3. Set out the rest of your decorations and watch as your children create some interesting characters.
