Dinosaur Sock Puppet Craft

What you'll need:

• Sock: clean and fun colors preferred
• 2 googly eyes
• Red and black felt
• Felt that matches your sock (whatever color you'd like!)
• Scissors
• Glue
• Drinking glass

• Put the sock on your hand or your child's hand. Wiggle the sock around a bit so that your thumb is able to make a good mouth for your puppet.
• Cut a triangular piece of red felt for the inside of the mouth and glue it in place.
• Glue on two googly eyes on the sock so they sit on top of your hand.
• Cut two small circles out of black felt and glue towards the front of your fingers to make a dino nose.
• Cut triangles out of felt to make the spikes on the back of your puppet. You will need two triangles for one spike.
• Glue the tops of the two triangles together, leaving the bottom part open. This will allow you to glue the spike onto the sock and still have it stand up.
• Run a generous amount of glue where you'd like the spike to go, spread the bottom of your spike open a little bit and press it into place. Repeat for as many spikes as you'd like (we were able to fit 3 on an adult sized sock).
• Cut a little bit off the open end of your sock to make arms for your puppet. Shape the extra bit of sock into a t-rex like arm and glue one arm on each side.
• Slip the sock puppet over a drinking glass to allow the glue to dry.
