Here at Ruffles and Rain Boots, we love pretend play. From dress up costumes to popular paper dragon puppets, we foster creativity wherever it shows itself.
These elephant paper puppets, like our monkey paper puppets, are quick to come together and use only one primary craft supply: construction paper. Easy kid crafts are the best!

Supplies for Easy Animal Puppets
I love paper puppets because you don’t need a ton of materials. Most of these supplies would be in any kid’s craft station supplies.
- Construction Paper (we used a full sheet of dark blue, and scraps of light blue and pink)
- Scissors, glue stick, and tape
- Black marker
- Elephant Paper Puppet Template (ears, mouth, trunk, and eyes)
