Pirate Mask CraftDirections: Print on heavy card stock. Grown-ups can help the child assemble the mask. Use string, ribbon or yarn to tie the mask in the back. Always monitor children closely whenever using string or ribbon of any kind.
Puppet & Puzzle Crafts
Directions: This penguin and pig craft can be used to create puppets.
Activities: Grown-ups can help the child assemble the puppets. Use feathers, yarn, string, pom-poms or other “furry” embellishments for animal’s fur. You can add “google” eyes for the eyes. Use puffy paint, finger-paints, colored sand, or other art supplies to add texture.
You can use this puppet to tell stories or you can use it in song, such as “Old McDonald had a Farm.” The pig or penguin can be used as a teaching tool – tell your child about the sounds each puppet makes, where they live and what food they like to eat.
These puppet pieces are designed to be used with a standard brown bag lunch sack that measures 10 5/8 x 5 1/8 x 3 1/8 inches.
Have fun creating these storytelling puppets with your little-one(s).

Penguin: Easy to assemble. Just cut into two parts – the head and the body. Paste the face/head onto the bottom of the brown paper sack so that when you move the “mouth” of the sack it looks as though the puppet is talking. Feel feel free to embellish as desired.

Make a PenguinPuzzle Craft
Print out the penguin from the previous page and create “puzzle” pieces from it. Use simple shapes to create the puzzle. Ask your child to glue the pieces back together into the shape of an penguin. You can use this black and white image as a guide. If desired you could also use this as a coloring page.
