Puppeteers

Another day in what might as well be sub-zero temperatures. Which means another day stuck inside with stir-crazy monsters. (luckily Calen was at school for three of those hours). 

So, we made monster puppets for our little monsters.

Here's the dealio:

- brown paper lunch bags
- construction paper
- googly eyes
- pipe cleaners
- markers, crayons, glue, tape, scissors 
 
We glued on the googly eyes, taped on the pipe cleaner ears, glued on the teeth (that mom pre-cut for them) and then cut and glued random spots, stripes, or whatever to the body. 

Done.  

It actually held their attention longer to actually make them then play with them, but maybe that's because it was closing in on dinner time, the kids were crabby, and Daddy was working late so Mom was on her own and threw a movie in to distract them when they started whining (and thus forgot about their monsters). 
 
P.S. Calen made his all by himself AND wrote his name on the bottom. Mom made Camden's for him and he contributed by eating one of the googly eyes.
