Do you have leftover envelopes from your Christmas cards this year?

Or perhaps you are looking for something that is not only crafty BUT also fun to play with afterwards?!

Well then – you are in the right place today because Glued To My Crafts has done it again! Today we are sharing our Reindeer Envelope Puppet kid craft idea and we hope you LOVE it as much as we do! Happy crafting {and playing} my friends!!!

Reindeer Envelope Puppet Craft Supplies:

• Square Kraft Envelopes {affiliate link}
• Light Tan Cardstock
• Dark Brown Cardstock
• Red Cardstock
• Craft Scissors
• Glue Stick
• Small Wiggle Eyes
• 1 inch Circle Paper Punch {affiliate link}

Directions:

• First things first – you are going to cut out your reindeer nose, belly and antlers from the various colors of cardstock.
• Now grab your blank kraft colored envelope and glue stick.
• Take the envelope and make the side that has the triangular flap, face you.
• Using the glue stick, glue down the cardstock belly shape down first {under the flap} and follow that up with the nose, wiggle eyes and antlers on the envelope.
• Finally – take the circle paper punch and punch TWO holes near the bottom of the decorated envelope, for your child’s fingers to slip through and turn the reindeer into a puppet.
• Then play with it and/or display proudly!
