Make and Take Craft: Paper Bag Puppets
-Paper bags
-pom poms
-crayons
-scissors
-glue sticks
-construction paper
-pipe cleaners
-bottle glue
Process: There's virtually zero prep, just have all the stuff out and ready to go after story time. Working with caregivers the kids can create faces for the paper bags. Stick your hand inside the bag and use your hand to manipulate the flap as a mouth.
Time: 5 minutes for prep, which was basically gathering all the materials into one place, and 30 minutes for the craft.
