Two Delicious Pickles!

 Happy Summer time! Just in time for picnics I have a new finger puppet set.  Here are my Two Little Pickles.  I just used a Google image and jazzed them up with fabric paint, and googley eyes.  These two make me smile 

Two little Pickles in the fridge being chill.

One is Sweet and the other is Dill.

Roll away Sweet… Roll away Dill.

Come back Sweet...Come back Dill.

Two Little Chameleons!

 

I'm in love with these two adorable chameleons!  I am using my old guessing game Chameleon set from here this week and I needed to add my favorite new finger puppets.  

I'm also using my old set of 5 lizards too!  

Here's the rhyme, I don't remember where I found it tho.  

Five Little Lizards

One little lizard all alone, lying on a smooth, flat stone.

Two little lizards side by side, they play peekaboo, then they hide.

Three little lizards beneath a tree, they run away when they see me!

Four little lizards having fun chasing one another in the sun.

Five little lizards lie so still, snoozing on my windowsill. 

Chameleons and lizards are so much Fun with Friends at Storytime!

Two Little Acorns

 

I'm gearing up for fall and wanted to add a 'two little' set and these fill the ticket!  

Two Little Acorns ready to fall

One is Penelope and one is Paul.

Jump down Penelope. Jump down Paul!

Bounce high Penelope. Bounce high Paul!

Two little acorns had a big fall.

One named Penelope and one named Paul!

I used several shades of brown felt and some glitter glue and fabric paint and the cute googly eyes.  I used an image from Google and just deconstructed it for my pattern.  Easy Peasy! They are mighty cute! Fall and acorns are so much Fun with Friends at Storytime!

Two Little Cows!

Another set of Finger Puppets - Bears!

 

Here's my latest, 2 Little Bears!  I deconstructed and simplified a Google image and used some acrylic paint and slick fabric paint and 2 little googley eyes and I've got a cute set that can be either, Teddy Bears or  just bear cubs.

One is Thelma and the other is Ted.

Two Hungry Hedgehogs

We just did a Forest Animals storytime and I had my Five Little Foxes felt set, Five Little Hedgehogs but I wanted 2 little hedgehogs, of course!  Meet Morris and Marie! I love them.  I used a couple of Google images to make my cuties.  They were a big hit!

One named Morris and the other is Marie.

Sniff away Morris, sniff away Marie.

Come back Morris, come back Marie.

Happy Birthday times 2!

 

Birthdays are always so much fun as a theme for storytime! I have another set of finger-puppets for our Birthday theme! I used a Google image and slick fabric paint with shiny pipe cleaner and cut up sequin candles for the top of my cakes. I also cut a piece of large sequin for the happy smile and used goofy google eyes for fun!  These guys make me smile! 

Two fancy cakes for your birthday,

One named Hip Hip and one named Hooray!

Blow out their candles, then we all say

“Happy, Happy Birthday,

A Collection of Finger Puppets for Spring

 We've started planning for Spring! Yay! We like to end our storytime with a finger puppet rhyme. The repetition of the technique doesn't get old because we change up the shape and the names of the two littles! Here are my ducks, frogs and trees! These are addictive to make! LOL!

I used toothpicks colored with a brown marker for my snowpal arms and the snowflakes are plastic snowflake Christmas ornaments hot glued to felt circles. I used fabric paint for the snowpals and google eyes and a cut up sequin for my snowflakes' faces.  We're having a lot of wintery Fun with Friends at Storytime!

Two Happy Jack-o-lanterns!

 

Here are my 2 little finger puppet Jack-o-lanterns for Halloween.  These are bigger than usual so that they fit on 2 fingers.  I cut a front and back using an Ellison diecut pumpkin as my pattern and just tweaked the bottom a little.  I did add a brown felt stem and my green vine is hot glued between the stems and to the top to keep that curly effect.  

Here's my rhyme:

Two Happy Jack-o-lanterns!

Two Happy Jack-o-lanterns ready for Halloween.

One named Jax and one named Jean.

Roll away Jax and Roll away Jean.

Come back Jax and come back Jean.

Two Happy Jack-o-lanterns say Boo! for Halloween.
