Oh boy, do I LOVE how these little monsters turned out!
I was inspired by this owl finger puppet post* from playingwithwords365.com to make these monsters. As you can see in that post, the puppets are a rectangle of felt, rolled into a tube with ends glued together. She then folded over two edges of the tube to create the owl “ears.”
I did the same for a couple of my monsters (fuschia, although it’s covered by pompom, and dark blue) but for the other three I improvised the tops, gluing each in a slightly different way. I then attached pompoms and googly eyes, and gave each a puffy paint smile.
Silly little monsters!
I found several different “5 little monsters” poems to use (see link), but this one was my favorite:
5 little monsters sleeping in my bed,
1 crept out from under the spread
I called to mama and mama said,
No more monsters sleeping in your bed!
4…3…2…1…
No little monsters sleeping in my bed
None crawled out from under the spread.
I called to mama and mama said,
There are no monsters! Now go to bed!
