Directions:
1. Start by cutting out a 2 1/2-inch circle, a 4-inch circle and two polar bear ears out of your white cardstock paper.
2. Punch two 1/2-inch circles out at the bottom of your larger circle. These will be the little finger holes for your puppet. Glue the 2 1/2-inch circle onto the 4-inch circle to make the polar bear head and body. Then glue the ears onto the back of the head.
3. Finish your polar bear finger puppet by gluing on your googly eyes, small black pom drawing on a mouth with your black marker.
Put two of your fingers into the holes for your polar bear feet and now your cute little guy is all ready for play.
