CUP MARIONETTE!

  1. You'll need 3 paper cups. Cut 4 pieces of strong thread or string.


  2. Tie one end of each string to a piece of twig or popsicle stick.


  3. Insert strings through a cup from inside, as shown. This is your puppet's "HEAD CUP".





  4. Attach other 2 strings from Inside "FEET CUPS" as shown.





  5. Tie "HEAD CUP" strings to a control stick. (Your control stick can be a twig you've found in the yard, an old ruler, curtain rod, etc.).





  6. Attach "FEET CUP" STRINGS TO "HEAD CUP" just as you did before.





  7. Decorate and dance your marionette!
