Create your own Wolf finger puppet that you could use along with "Peter and the Wolf” story. Felt finger puppets are a fun craft for people of all ages! With some creativity, you can make them resemble anything you would like.
Once you get the hang of it, you will be able to whip a puppet very quickly. Use the downloadable template provided by HelloSewing and sew the wolf in as little as 30 minutes. You can add or remove some of the features. Use a mix of stitches (running stitches, blanket stitches, whip stitch) or hot glue to assemble your finger puppets.
