A Plethora of Pirate Puppets in Se7en Steps…

Hood #4 has moved on from paper dolls to pirate puppets… You have been warned!!! Expect to see a lot of these around!!!

This is what you are aiming for:

Let’s Meet the Players:

We used:

Let’s Play The Game:

Step 1: We started by drawing heaps pirates in pencil, on cardboard.

Step 2: Then we colored the pirates in with markers.

Step 3: We snipped out the pirates and stuck toothpicks onto the back of them using sticky tape. And our pirates puppets were ready.

Step 4: We needed an ocean – white crayons and watercolors did the trick. And we snipped a wave line.

Step 5: And a pirate ship is essential. Back to the drawing board, and a couple of markers. And “The Se7ered Hoods” was launched!

Step 6: We snipped and launched our ship, we stuck it to the waves with sticky tape.

Step 7: We slid our boat and ocean into a shoebox and had a mini-puppet-stage.

The pirates were ready to play…

Gotta just love the crow’s nest!

Have Fun!
