This is a no-cost project that will occupy your kids for a while.
Approximate Time: 5 - 10 minutes each
Supplies
- old greeting cards
- scissors
- cellophane tape
- glue sick
Instructions
- Let the kids cut characters from the fronts of old greeting cards. These may be animals, people, snowmen, etc.
- From the back of card, cut a strip measuring about 3/4x3 inches. Roll this strip into a cylinder and tape the ends together to secure.
- Glue a cylinder to the bottom of each character cut-out, on the back of the design.

What a great idea and so easy. I plan to do it with other cards I get that are suitable. I can see a puppet play coming on!
