Step 1
To make the puppet body, roll the 9" x 12" black paper into a cylinder and glue it. Position the seam at the back of the project and glue the top inch of the cylinder closed.
Step 2
Round the corners of the 4" x 6" white paper (belly) and glue it to the puppet.
Step 3
To make the wings, fold the 3" x 9" black paper in half and cut a wing shape. Glue the wings to the puppet.
Step 4
Finally, cut feet, a beak, facial features, and head markings from the paper scraps and glue them to your puppet.
Adult supervision is recommended when children use scissors.
