Instructions
1. Print out your favorite Sprout characters (cardstock or thick paper is recommended.) You can print them here and here.
2. Color and decorate each of the characters. Make sure to use bold color so that light doesn’t pass through easily.
3. With help from a grown-up Sprout, use safety scissors to cut along the lines to create your shadow puppets.
4. Attach each character to a craft stick with glue.
5. Using a flashlight, shine the light on each of your characters to cast a shadow on the wall.
6. Enjoy your very own puppet show!
