Halloween Finger Puppets

  These shapes have been sitting among my craft supplies for a year.   
 
  A whole year!

  After our cotton ball ghost I was inspired to make these, but I never got around to doing more than cutting them out last year, so I kept them around just in case I got to it this year. Unlike most things I save for that reason, this one actually was finished!

Supplies:

• Craft foam
• Sharpies
• Scissors

   I drew the shapes free-handed (perhaps you couldn't tell...). The trickiest part was deciding where to put the finger holes - not too far apart, not too small. I ended up practicing cutting holes in a piece of paper first so I had some idea of the size I'd need. (Hint: Fold the foam or paper in half and snip that way!)
​

  Kay loves playing with these - but not staying still with them long enough to get a good photo of it! Mostly she tries to scare people with the ghosts. We're getting really good at saying, "Oh, wow, you got me that time!"
