Sharks may look fierce in the water, and while I don’t feel comfortable being around them (but will absolutely admire them from afar), when it comes to shark crafts, they can be the cutest thing ever!

We quite enjoy shark related crafts and activities, shark scavenger hunt is one of my favorite crafts, learning how to draw a shark is also a super fun activity.

These super simple printable shark puppets are great to use during story time or just for fun!

Messy printing. We use thicker 120gsm printing paper, but regular printing paper is fine (just more prone to “wear and tear”).

If you print the black and white version, we recommend coloring it before cutting the pieces.

We colored with markers because we liked the vibrant colors.

Cut the strap.

Don’t cut the shark out yet as you will need to fold it along the marked lines.

Fold 3 times along the lines on the print.

Now that you have finished folding, you can cut out the shark.

Reinforce the folds.

Glue the straps to the shark’s back (inside the mouth). One strap on top and one strap on bottom.

Done! Your printable shark puppet is finished! This little guy is now ready to bite anything that gets in its way.
