Enchanted Learning Software's Paper Plate Butterfly Puppet Craft More Kinder Crafts A simple-to-make paper plate butterfly puppet. Each butterfly is made from two paper plates taped together. |
 |
|
 |
 |
Fold a paper plate in half (fold it so that the back side of the plate is touching itself). |
 |
Using another paper plate, cut out a strip of the plate from the middle (discard the middle strip). |  |
 |
Tape each of the half-round pieces you just cut onto the folded plate (or you can staple them together). Position them so that the eating surfaces of the plates are facing each other - tape along the round edges only.
This will form two pockets where you will later put your fingers and control the puppet. |
|
Draw a butterfly on your puppet. Punch two holes towards the top for the antennae, and loop a pipe cleaner through the holes (to be the antennae).
Optional: Glue on googly eyes. |

|
You now have a great butterfly puppet that flaps its wings (with a little help from your hand). |
