A photograph of the puppet show craft, complete with a backdrop and character finger puppets. Characters are Bluey, Bingo (as a ghost), Mackenzie and Indy.

What you’ll need:

Instructions:

  1. Print out the downloadable sheets for your characters, props and backgrounds.
  2. Taking off the lid of your shoebox, stick the background to the bottom of your box. We used adhesive putty so we could change them easily.
  3. Standing it up on the side, you now have your stage.
  4. Cut out the characters and props.
  5. Holding the cutout characters, connect the tabs around your finger to form a loop. You can then use sticky tape to keep it together.
  6. Cut out some extra props you might need for your show.
  7. Now you’re ready to perform your upper show for friends and family! Don’t forget, you can change your scene to make up a whole new spooky story.
