Meet the gang!
Follow these easy instructions, use your imagination and bring these holiday creatures to life.
Download Holiday Finger Puppets pattern (PDF)
Step 1: Print the pattern and cut into separate pieces
Step 2: Place the body of the finger puppet over a piece of cardboard (we recommend using the back-side of a cereal box). Cut out the pattern, together with the cardboard, along the outer line.
Step 3: Fold the body of the finger puppet along the dashed line (use the pattern as reference). Glue or tape (we recommend using double sided tape) the back together leaving enough space for a kid’s finger to fit inside.
Step 4: Cut out the other parts of the pattern (follow same instructions as step 2). Get creative and try different papers or fabric for the nose, hat, beard, and other elements.

Step 5: Dress up your puppet! You can glue or tape all the different pieces together.
It’s time to play!

Really cute! I’d love to make them, but the Internet will not allow me to download the patterns… I don’t know if it is something on your side, or on mine. But thanks for the eye candy. (Got here from One Pretty Thing.)
