this month's zoo: this day. this time. this place

it's going to be fun. invite friends and as always, bring your monkeys. (by the way, if you're wondering why this doesn't make sense, it's because I haven't filled it in yet.)

Finger Puppets


Em is so brilliant. She made up these little dandies all on her lonesome and I think they are genius! (We will be making these for our March zoo as well)

Here are the supplies needed for finger puppets:

The cheap stretchy gloves

A stack of felt, your choice of colors

Hot glue gun

Em has a huge stack of felt that she is going to bring. But be sure to bring your huge stack as well.

Also, this is a great project to finally use all those little scraps of felt you have lying around.

(unless of course you're not like me and you don't save every tiny little scrap thinking someday it will come in handy. Shame on you. Don't you feel foolish now.)

Scissors are going to be a definite go for this project. Make sure they are the sharp kind that can cut through felt. (And I imagine the smaller ones might be a tad bit easier for cutting such small little pieces. Just a thought)
