Sack Puppets

Sack puppets can be made and enjoyed by all folks, kindergarten through adult. You decide how much time and artistic effort you want to put into your sack puppet projects. They can be quickie puppet play stand-ins or works of art. It's totally up to you.

Paper Sack Puppet Instructions

We usually recommend that you cover puppets with construction paper folded to conform to the folds of the sack.
