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:
- Pencils
- Markers
- White crayons
- Watercolors
- Scissors
- Sticky Tape
- Toothpicks
- A Box for a puppet stage
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!
