Alligator Toilet Paper Tube Puppet

   

To make this paint a toilet paper tube green.  After it is dry, figure out where the middle is, and flatten one end from the center out.  Cut on the folded lines from the outside in to the center.  This will be the mouth.  Slide the tube onto your fingers and determine which piece will be the lower jaw.  Cut 1/2 inch off of that end.  Fold the upper jaw over 1/2 inch.  Now cut little v's on both side of the lower jaw to make teeth.  Cut v's on the sides of the upper jaw and along the front folded down piece to make teeth.  Paint the teeth white.  Let them dry.  Now glue two large pompoms to the top.  Glue two wiggly eyes to the pompoms.
