Making Halloween crafts is a fun way to get children concerned in the vacation and making a ghost glove puppet is a fun way to get them involved. There are a few different ways you can go about making a ghost glove puppet. These are some of the ideas that we have come up with of course, with the aid of the web.
The first way we found to make a ghost glove puppet is to take a 12 in. square of white fabric or a white handkerchief, three rubber bands, and a black marker. Hold your hand with the three middle fingers together and the tiny finger and thumb outstretched. Drape the white fabric square over your hand with one of the diagonals running along the pinnacle of your fingers. Fix one elastic band over the middle three fingers about where your knuckles are : this forms the ghost’s head. Fix the second band over your thumb and the 3rd over your small finger : these are the spook’s arms. Finally, draw a spooky face on your ghost and your ghost glove puppet is ready to go.
You can also make a spook glove puppet out of a paper lunch bag. First, spray paint or color the bag white. The face of the spook glove puppet will be the base of the bag that folds over. Draw a spooky face on this part of the bag. You can then take and shred the bottom of the bag to make creepy tendrils. Place your hand inside the bag and fold your fingers over the bottom to make your spook come to life!
once you have made your spook glove puppet, it could be a fun thing to scribble some type of script to put on a scary play. There are a large amount of places online that have puppet plays, but it is much more fun to come up with your own story line with assistance from your kid or children. Write the script from the point of view of the ghost. Perhaps he isn’t like other ghosts and just wants to belong. Perhaps he could be a bad spook who finally is taught ways to turn his life around by his pals. The possibilities are endless.
when you’re using your ghost glove puppet to put on a puppet show, ensure that your play has a moral. Stories like these are great paths to teach youngsters about wrong and right. Not only do you show them crafting by making a ghost glove puppet, but you are showing them how to be creative with the writing of a play.
