Paper Bag Pirate Craft For Kids To Recreate

This easy kids craft is perfect for summer days when you need a little bit of fun. All you need are some paper bags, paint, and cardstock paper. Let the adventures begin!

Craft Supplies:

  • Brown Paper Bag
  • Paint Crayons or Craft Paint
  • White Cardstock Paper
  • Pirate Hat Freebie on our landing page
  • Crayons, Coloring Pencils or Markers
  • Kraft Cardstock Paper
  • Red Cardstock Paper
  • Kid Friendly Craft Scissors

You can find ALL our favorite craft supplies via our AMAZON SHOP link!

Directions:

  • First things first – lay the paper bag on a flat surface, with the bottom flap facing you. Just envision that the smaller rectangle area is the face and the larger portion is his body.
  • Now grab your skin tone paint color and paint the smaller square completely, for his face.
  • Follow that up by painting altering stripes on the remaining paper bag portion for his shirt.
  • Once done, set aside to let it dry completely.
  • Now grab your pirate hat printable, as well as your choice of coloring material.
  • Color in one of the pirate hat designs, however you like.
  • When done coloring it, trim it out with scissors {save the remaining hat to repeat the craft.}
  • Now grab another sheet of white cardstock paper, as well as a pencil.
  • Pick a hand {any hand} and lay it flat on the paper.
  • Use a pencil to trace around the hand.
  • Lift up your hand and take your scissors to trim out the newly made traced design.
  • This is now the pirate’s beard.
  • Next up – cut out a small oval for the nose and half circle eye patch from the remaining pieces of cardstock paper you have.
  • Now we are ready to finish up the pirate lunch sack puppet craft. Grab your painted paper bag, all your paper cutouts, a wiggle eye and glue.
  • Go ahead and start off by gluing the handprint beard in place, right on the fold of the paper bag.
  • Follow that up with the nose on top of that and then build from there.
  • To finish it off, add the pirate cutout on top of his head.
  • And that’s it on this Paper Bag Pirate craft! Go ahead and add any other embellishments before you display him proudly for all to see!
  • BTW – you can easily stick your hand inside the decorated brown paper bag to make it into a puppet!
