Sock Puppets

Making Sock Puppets with Year 2:

A great way to use your old and unmatched socks!

Materials:

Sock
Coloured art paper
Small polystyrene balls or stuffing for eyes
Posca pens
Thread
PVA glue

Artist's example:


Making a  mouth: cut an oval shape and stick it on as shown onto the top side of the sock.


Add the eyes by pushing two small polystyrene balls or stuffing inside, tie these off with thread



Now to decorate your sock puppet, draw the eyes on with Posca pens then add features with cut out coloured paper





Make your puppet as colourful and elaborate as you like!

Year 2 made some spectacular puppets many themed on dragons and other mystical creatures.
