Let's make a quirky cat! (free printable)

Today, we’re going to create fun cat puppets and then enjoy making up stories with them!

Can you put on a performance for your family or friends?

You will need:

• Free Quirky Cat printable
• Scissors
• Glue dots
• Pen
• Pipe cleaners – brown, red, orange, yellow, green, blue, purple, multi
• Mini popsicle sticks

Instructions:

1. Print the cat template out – you could print it onto coloured card or paper, or print it on white paper and colour it in.
2. Cut the cat out.
3. Using a glue dot (or craft glue or double-sided tape), stick the cat to the top of a mini popsicle stick.

4. Wrap a pipe cleaner around the popsicle stick, under the cat. Leave a bit of pipe cleaner to make a curly tail.

5. Draw a line on the stick to make legs, and add paws if you like!

6. Your cat is done! Make more cats, and then use them to make up a story or a play.

This video will show you how to make your own quirky cat – have fun making up stories!
