No-Sew Quiet Book: Barn and Finger Puppets

We're making it through all of our quiet book pages.
After this one I will only have two more to post, so stay tuned!

I think this page one was my favorite one to make, I love the little animals hiding :) 

I had been thinking about making a 'barn page' for a while, I just didn't know what else I wanted to do with it.

I was originally going to make some animals and have a place for my son to velcro them on, but it somehow turned into finger puppets instead, and I am loving them!

Making the puppets is pretty easy, I have included some pictures below so you can kind of see how they came together.

For all of the animals I cut out two pieces of felt for the body.

Using a hot glue gun, I glued the pieces together around the sides and top.
Leave the bottom open!

Then attach any details.
I had some googly eyes, so I glued those on.
An orange triangle piece for the beak, a cream-colored oval shape for the tummy, and little arms completed this little guy.

I ran out of the googly eyes, so I ended up cutting small white circles for the eyes, and smaller black circles for the pupils.

For the frogs mouth, and all of the other animals features, I used the black puffy fabric paint that I used on the Counting quiet book page.

For the cows spots I just cut out a few tiny odd-shaped black pieces and glued them on.

At first this was supposed to be a mouse, but it somehow turned into a cat.
I think it's the pointy ears...

Here are the pieces for the pink pig.
I just realized I didn't get an individual shot of him, but you can see him in the above picture with all of the animals :)

Now on to their home, the barn!

The grey colored felt I used is actually the back of the 'counting page' so if it seems a little bumpy, it's from the beads on the other side.

I cut out two red rectangle shapes and hot glued them to the grey.

Only gluing along the outside.

 I then cut out, what I thought, looked the top of a barn and glued it on.

 I then cut out a bunch of white strips and glued them on, giving it the 'barn' look.

I then opened the 'doors' and glued a blue rectangle piece, only along the bottom and sides so the animals could go in the top. 

And there you have it!

A nice home for all of the animals :)

Hope you enjoyed!
