Make a Daisy Puppet

Learn how to make a flower using an old cd, a paper plate, a sock, and a few other supplies. Age Guideline: 5 Years and Up Time Required: 30 minutes (Does not include drying time) The above age and time guidelines are estimates. This project can be modified to suit other ages and may take more or less time depending on your circumstances. Materials Needed: Paper Plate CD Craft Glue Large Wiggle Eyes Pom-pom Scrap of Felt or Construction Paper Old Sock - Preferably Green Scissors Instructions: Cut around the edge of the paper plate to make petal shapes. Glue the cd onto the center of the paper plate. Glue the pom-pom over the hole in the center of the CD. Glue on the wiggle eyes and use a scrap of felt or paper to make a mouth. For the final touch, apply a generous amount of glue to the back of your flower. Gently press the foot part of the sock onto the glue. Set aside to dry completely . Once the glue is dry, you can slip your hand into the sock and play with your puppet! Danielle's Daisy Scouts made a variation of this craft... Instead of a puppet, they made a daisy sun catcher!
