Sea Monster Sock Puppets

I found these pictures from the summer, of my students sea monster sock puppets.  I had originally planned on using fuzzy socks but couldn't find any at the time.  Nonetheless, the puppets turned out really well, with my students adding all kinds of embellishments such as necklaces, capes and horns.  They even started to create elaborate back stories and personalities for their puppets.  My own puppet, that I used as a demo for the kids, was a sea monster who loved to tell and hear jokes.

If you find yourself creating your own sea monster here a few themed jokes:

"What is a pirate's favourite cookie?"  Answer: Chips Ahoy!

"What did the ocean say to the sail boat?"
Answer: Nothing!  It just waved!

    1. Thanks! My students used regular white glue to create different parts, and then I hot glued them onto the sock.
