Nativity Puppets

11/16/2012

Every year for our church Christmas party the children dress up and act out the nativity. To streamline the process, we decided to do a puppet show. Using some finger puppets as inspiration, I came up with patterns for hand puppets. I got together with the rest of the Primary Presidency and we spent the better half of the day creating these super cute little puppets. Below the pictures is a list of materials and a link for the patterns.

Materials:
* Patterns (the donkey's mane and the cow's spots are not included)
* Felt
* Googily Eyes
* Various Buttons and Ribbon
* Pink Ink Pad and Q-tip (for rosy cheeks)
* Markers
* Glue Gun
* Sewing Machine/Clear Thread (Optional)

We sewed the glove part of the puppets together because we figured that would be easier than gluing it, but you could glue it. Also, the pattern does not allow for a seam allowance for the glove part because we did not turn them inside out after sewing. Everything else is glued onto the glove. Oh, and we are starting our Nativity with Samuel the Lamanite prophesying of Christ's coming.

So cute! What a great way to teach a toddler about the meaning of Christmas.
