Old Children's Book Puppets

My Son has never met a book that he hasn't destroyed. It makes it a little hard to read him bed time stories. I decided to make puppets out of the characters of the books and use them in the story telling process instead of the book.

 These are the materials I used:     A few torn up books, felt, BBQ skewers, scissors.

Cut out the characters from the book you would like to make into puppets.     Cover the back of the cut out with Elmer's glue and stick the skewer in the middle. A Popsicle stick works the best, but didn't have any  in the house.

Turn the cut outs so they glue side is on the felt. Give the glue a few hours to dry completely and then cut the puppets out with the felt backing.
