beach toy puppets

Pin It

We've all seen the adorable spoon puppets being made out there. Well, I figured we could make some pretty cute puppets out of some of our extra beach toys. The kids absolutely loved making these with me and are still playing with them. We only made 2 to start, but because they love them so much I imagine we'll be making more in the near future. They are pretty cute if I do say so myself! Here's how you can make your own puppets:

What you'll need:

beach toys - shovels, rakes, etc.
glue
decorations - googly eyes, yarn, buttons, whatever you want!

Directions:

Just glue some adorable decorations on your beach toys to make adorable summer puppets! That's it! Couldn't be easier.

  7. Its so beautiful. I like it. The beach toys are bright and colorful so be careful other kids are drawn to them and may try to claim them for their own. They are easy to store.
