DLTK's Crafts for Kids
Cloud Wind Puppet
Thank you to Nichole for sharing this craft idea with us!
Materials:
- Paper
- scissors
- glue or stapler
- White ribbon
- scrap paper
- OPTIONAL: markers or pencil crayons
Instructions:
- Fold a white piece of paper in half and cut out a cloud
shape.
(Or you can print the cloud template below, fold it
in half and cut it out)
- Staple 3 sides of the cloud together and leave the 4th side
open like a pocket.
(I stapled, because it was faster. Glue
looks a lot better and doesn't have sharp edges!)
- Hole punch a few holes in one end and tie some white ribbon
into the holes to hang out like streamers.
- Once the ribbons were tied and knotted, we used shredded
paper to stuff the cloud.
(You can used the stuff in your
shredder garbage can, you can use scraps from the stuff you
cut, you can use newspaper, or you can use any discarded paper
to recycle it. I used finished school work that we didn't need
any more, and I cut it into strips to crunch.)
- Once the cloud is stuffed, staple or glue the last side
together.

You now have a wind puppet!
We drew faces on ours. The girls helped them and danced around
the room whistling and talking about what kinds of things they moved with
the wind (leaves, grass, hair, etc.)
