The Mom I Want to Be

uncoated paper plate
markers
yarn for hair
scissors
white glue
small pink balloon

Use the markers to draw a face on the paper plate. Cut bits of yarn to glue around the face for hair. Poke a small hole through the center of the mouth. Slip the end of the pink balloon through the hole in the front of the plate, so that the end of the balloon is behind the plate face. To make your face puppet blow a bubble, just blow on the end of the balloon. If a younger child is doing this project, just inflate the balloon slightly, knot the end, and slip it through the hole so the face looks like it is blowing a bubble.

For younger children, this would make a great Letter B activity.

Here it has been added to a How To… Informational Writing.  So cute!
