Supplies you will need:

paper bag(we used a white bag, but you could also use a brown bag)
red tissue papersquares
red, white, black and blue cardstock paper
large heart punch(optional)
black marker
Elmer’s glue
scissors

Directions:

1. Add school glue, one section at a time onto your paper bag, and add crumbled red tissue paper squares to it. Continue adding school glue and tissue paper squares until your paper bag is filled. (Make sure not to glue the top section overhang of the bag to the paper bag.)

2. Cut out the pieces you need for your monster from your red, white, black and blue cardstock paper. You will need 2 white circles for the eyes (about 1-1.5 inches in diameter), 2 red triangle ears, 1 black mouth, 4 small white teeth, a blue heart and if you want you can cut out 2 eyebrows.

3. Glue all the monster pieces onto the face of your paper bag. Use your black marker to draw pupils inside your eyes. Once it is dry, put your hand inside your puppet and pretend to talk like a love monster.
