You are going to love this cute, quick and easy craft.  We have been making all sorts of monster projects lately like this Roll a Monster Game, these Plush Monster Dolls and this Embroidery Hoop Monster Craft
This year I wanted to create something with my little guys that they could use as simple Christmas gifts for their class mates.  This is what we came up with.

How to make Monster Finger Puppets:

Supplies:

  • sewing machine and thread
  • felt material
  • fabric paint
You will need a variety of felt material scraps, white and black fabric paint, a sewing machine and accessories.

Begin by cutting the felt into small rectangles about 1″ x 2″ in size.  We cut some with spikes at the top or with little horns.
 

Monster Finger Puppets ~ One For The Boys

Sew two rectangles together leaving the bottom side open.

Here are our monsters all lined up.  We will need to create at least forty four Monster Finger Puppets if we want to hand them out to each classmate {{wish us luck}}.  In the meantime it is fun to play…
