How to Make Valentine's Day Finger Puppets

A finger puppet is a fun way to entertain children and parents can make Valentine's Day finger puppets with their kids. Making Valentine's Day finger puppets is a simple task if one has a few simple craft items, a little imagination and the following steps.

Difficulty: Easy

Instructions

Things You'll Need:

• Pink and red construction paper
• Crafting scissors
• Craft glue
• Marker
• Knife
• Googly eyes
• Heart-shaped foam piece

1. Gather all needed crafting materials.

2. Cut one piece each of red and pink construction paper in half.

3. Draw a heart on one of the half pieces of construction paper. Cut this heart out with crafting scissors.

4. Take another half piece of construction paper, in a different color, and draw another heart on it. Be sure this other heart is a little bit smaller that the first heart. Cut this slightly smaller heart out using the same pair of crafting scissors.

5. Glue the slightly smaller heart into the larger heart using craft glue. Allow the glue to dry thoroughly. Apply googly eyes and a nose with double-sided tape as well. The nose can just be a heart-shaped foam piece.

6. Mark the place for the finger holes to go. Use a marker to make either a dot or an "X" as a guide for the knife.

7. Use the knife to cut an "X" or a circle large enough for a child's fingers to fit through. Open up the "X" if necessary to allow the child's fingers to fit into the Valentine's Day finger puppet.
