Popsicle Stick Superheroes – Puppet Kid Craft Idea

It’s seems like I’ve been on a popsicle stick kid craft kick lately on the blog.

But in all honesty, once I start with one craft idea, the creativity juices get going and BAM! 20 popsicle stick kid crafts are ready to go.

It’s seriously amazing how many things you can make out of those inexpensive wood pieces {more of a reason to really invest in a huge pack of them!}

Take for example, today’s Popsicle Stick Superheroes Kid Craft. We really didn’t do anything too special to the sticks themselves BUT the end result turned out pretty cool. PLUS this is a great craft for those crime fighting boys in your life, to get involved with since superheroes are the “thing” right now!

So what are you waiting for? Grab your capes and craft supplies & get to work on crafting up these SUPERHEROES today! You can find ALL the details you need to know, in the full tutorial below!

Happy crafting and fighting crime with your children, of course!!! Don’t forget to share pictures of your craft stick superhero puppets on our Facebook page to admire from afar! #gluedtomycrafts
