Panda puppets with a purple P!
The best thing I learned homeschooling nearly two decades, was that if the child is having fun, learning happens easily!
To make these sweet Panda puppets you'll need
*construction paper
(black, pink, red, purple, green)
* green pipe cleaner
*white paper lunch bags
*large googly eyes
*scissors (bonus points if they're pinking shears, for the cute fur border)
*old toilet paper, paper towel rolls cut down to the size you want your bamboo
Pandas
#1. Start by cutting
4 black ovals
2 pink circles
1 long red oval
1 purple letter P
#2. glue the 2 pink circles to 2 black ovals and glue those to the top left and right of your paper bag!
โค๏ธ make sure you are using the floppy side of the bag, so your Panda can open its mouth
#3 glue two black ovals where the eyes should be, and glue your googly eyes on top of that.
#4. fold the red oval in half and glue it into the flap for the mouth.
#5. glue the letter P on your Pandas belly
That's it! Let it dry and your Panda will be ready to much on its bamboo!
which is 90% of their diet by the way ๐
(you were having so much fun you didn't even know you were learning)
Bamboo
#1. start by cutting down to size your paper towel rolls
#2. cut green straps of construction paper and two different color of green leaves.
#3. Place glue all over the back side the stairs of green paper and wrap them around the paper towel tube.
#4. When your tube is covered, glue two leaves wherever you want and secure them by twisting a green pipe cleaner vine around them!
๐ผFeed your Panda it's favorite food!
