Wooden Spoon Ladybug Puppets

New day, new spoon puppets and this time it’s time to make these super easy wooden spoon ladybug puppets.

We used disposable wooden spoons to make this (buy a pack at the grocery store) but you could easily make this with plastic spoons too.

We’ve been rolling out ladybug crafts recently (and will have a few more coming in the next few days) so stay tuned!

What you need

• wooden spoon or plastic spoon
• red and green paint
• permanent black marker
• comb

Paint the bowl and back red, the neck and handle green (yes, I had to google spoon parts :).

Let dry completely.

Once dry, draw a straight line through the middle of the red part of the back for the wings and draw a straight line for the head. Color the head. Draw 7 or more dots.

Done. So easy!

These are fun to play with as puppets but you can also use them as garden decorations. In this case, I recommend coating the spoons with liquid varnish (gloss is great) to protect the wood.

More spoon puppet crafts

Not only did we make a bunch of ladybugs, but we also made some wooden spoon puppets – like these princess spoon puppets, which are great for story time, or these busy bee spoon puppets, which are a little different than this one but I still think they could be friends with insects.
