Eat 'em Up Finger Puppets

What you need:

• peanut butter
• jelly
• raisins
• toothpick or Popsicle stick

What to do:

1. Invite your child to dip her finger into a jar of peanut butter. (You'll probably want to make sure she washes her hands first!)
2. Stick two raisins into the peanut butter to make eyes.
3. Dip a toothpick or Popsicle stick into jelly and use it to add a mouth and hair. Encourage experimentation with different facial expressions and hairstyles.
4. Use the finger puppet to act out a scene.
5. When finished, eat up!
