Alien Puppets Directions:
STEP 1: Print alien puppet template
Start by printing and cutting out the shapes from the template. You can find the printable at the bottom of the page. Then, use a pencil to trace the UFO patterns onto your craft papers, continue by cutting them out with a scissor. (see image below)
STEP 2: Make paper UFO craft
Attach the small round yellow shape onto the blue strip with the rounded end. Then, glue the long yellow strip along the bottom side of the glass cover's straight side.
Glue the 3 small pink round shapes onto the bottom strip of the UFO. Grab a piece of white paper and cut out the crescent shape and glue it to one side of the glass.
Start attaching the 3 small strips onto the bottom side of the paper UFO and then glue the blue strip with the yellow circle to the top side. Your UFO paper craft is now complete and ready to be made into your first stick puppet.
STEP 3: Make Paper Alien Craft
Get your favourite coloured papers for each alien and prepare the patterns by tracing them onto the coloured paper and cutting them out.
Glue the eyes and the other small parts of the alien to its base. Then, draw the mouth and other little details using a black marker. You can use the different shapes on the template in anyway you like to make your own unique alien crafts!
As a final step you need to attach the alien and UFO paper crafts onto some popsicle sticks. You have now completed your alien stick puppets!
These puppets look so pretty darn adorable! There's a lot of cutting paper involved so if doing this craft with younger children it might be a good idea to prepare some of the parts in advance. But other than that, this is a totally easy craft that kids will love making and playing with.
