The Character Collage
Puppet is a ton of fun
and a cinch to make!

What You'll Need:
  • Old clothing catalogs or magazines
  • Scissors
  • Craft glue

How to Make Character Collage Puppets:

Step 1: Look through old clothing catalogs or magazines. Cut out different heads, hairdos, arms, hands, bodies, clothes, legs, and shoes.

Step 2: Paste the different parts together on a piece of construction paper to make a mixed-up, new character. Be creative -- paste a great big hat on a small head and tiny arms on a big body.

Make a whole family of characters and give them a silly family name. You can even paste together parts of objects to make an alien character.

For example, the alien could have a car-tire head, gift-box body, feather arms, and key legs.

Now it's time to take your kids to a show at the big top. Learn how to make circus act finger puppets in the next section.
