Charming DIY Bunny Puppet

Get your kids imaginations and the fun going with a homemade bunny puppet. You can easily pull these together. Or better yet, you can make these with the kids and make it a bonding activity with them. 

What I love about these bunny puppets if you can make several of them in different facial expressions and of different colors.

My boys absolutely love playing with puppets. It’s such a joy to see where they take their imaginary play.
