Found an easy & fun craft for the 5ish and under crowd today in Brienne's June edition of Your Big Backyard.

Instructions

  • Cut animal shapes out of thick paper, we used file folders and cardstock.
  • Punch holes for decoration or to define features, like eyes.
  • Hot-glue a popsicle stick to the bottom part.
  • In a darkened room shine a flashlight on a plain wall. Hold puppets in front of light so they cast shadows.

Oodles and oodles of easy fun!

Brienne's bunny inspired Celine to write the following poem:

Cautious, cautious
wiggly eared
twitchy nosed
bunny
