How to make a paper ghost finger puppet

What you need:

Step by step instructions

Place two or three fingers on the paper and draw around them.

Draw a ghost shape around the outline of the finger, leaving a wide gap around the outline.

Fold the paper in half – this way, when you cut out the watermark outline, you will have two identical outlines.

Cut out the ghost outline.

Apply glue to the edge of one of the ghosts, not the underside of the ghost as there will be a gap for your fingers to fit into.

Glue the two parts of the ghost finger puppet together.

Draw a ghost face on one side, scary, funny or any other expression as long as it’s fun.

You will need to wait until the glue is completely dry before moving on to the next step. Once the glue is dry, slide the puppet onto your finger.

Done.

Have fun playing with the ghost finger puppets.
