This new colorful craft is perfect for kids! They can make their very own paper bag rainbow colored parrot puppet with just a few simple supplies and steps!
Craft Supplies:

- Red Craft Paint
- Paint Brush
- Paper Plate
- Paper Scissors
- Yellow Cardstock Paper

Directions:
- First squirt some red paint on a paper plate.
- Lay your paper bag on a flat surface with the flap facing upwards.
- Now have children paint their paper bag completely red. This will be the body of their parrot.

- While that is drying, have children pick out and flatten/fold in half 12 cupcake liners.
- Once done, go ahead and divide them into three piles.
- Staple each set together to look like feathers. Two of your sets will be the wings of the parrot, while the last set will be placed on the parrot’s head.
- Now grab your cardstock paper.
- Go ahead and cut out a triangular beak from the yellow cardstock as well. This piece will be used for the bird’s head.
- To finish off the Paper Bag & Cupcake Liner Parrot craft, simple glue/staple on the cardstock pieces, the wiggle eyes and the cupcake liner “feathers” in their appropriate places on the paper bag and finish off with any other embellishments you see fit {like beautiful glitter and rhinestones.}
