How To: Chinese New Year Dragon Puppet

Have some fun this Chinese New Year of the Dragon by making a colourful dragon puppet.
So easy to make with basic items you may already have in your craft box.
Get the kid to have fun painting the dragon in bright colours - a red dragon red is especially lucky. You can find the full instructions for the project in the current edition of tiny & little magazine.

Here is some behind the scenes action of Emma's puppet making style.

Cat from Raspberry Rainbow said...: This is fabulous! I wish I had thought of some thing like this last week when my 5 year old needed a dragon costume for kinder (we live in Hong Kong), so Dragons everywhere now! Luckily she had a dinosaur-like-but-passed as a dragon jacket to wear over her Chinese dress.; 22 January 2012 10:46 pm
