There is nothing quite like acting out a simple story, and this story of the forgiven debt is perfect for that. These finger puppets are so simple, with the only mildly difficult bit is cutting the bars of the prison – and you could skip that at a push! They have finger holes, but you could stick them onto popsicle sticks instead if you prefer. If you have a 1.5 cm circle punch, then they really can be made in a matter of minutes.
To make this craft, you will need the printout, scissors, popsicle stick, a punch, sticky tack and card (or print on thicker paper).
If you printed on thin paper, you may want to back your printout onto card before cutting the pieces out. These don’t need to be cut to the lines.
Remove the windows in the jail if you are doing so.
To use the jail cell, glue a popsicle stick to one side.
Remove the finger holes for the puppets. (Or, attach popsicle sticks if you prefer).
The complete set should look like this now.
Push two finders through the two holes, so your characters can walk around!
