Baby Chicks Puppet Supplies:

* Orange/Yellow Cardstock
* Jumbo Wavy Popsicle Stick
* Glitter
* Wiggle Eyes
* Scissors
* School Glue
optional – embellishments like rhinestones, sequins

Directions:

* First trace your child’s hand on the yellow cardstock. Repeat for each puppet you want to make {one handprint per puppet}
* Trim out with scissors.
* With the remaining orange cardstock, go ahead and cut out a triangular beak & long legs for each baby chick.
* Now it’s time for the embellishments on the handprint! Go ahead and place lines of glue on each finger. Sprinkle glitter on top. Shake off excess.
* To finish off the Handprint Baby Chick Puppet – glue your cardstock pieces to your handprint cutout, along with the wiggle eyes. Follow that up by gluing your jumbo popsicle stick to the back of your handprint cardstock piece. Then set it all aside to let it dry completely before the puppet show!
