These super cute and fun little mummies make great finger puppets. Make your mummy a girl by adding a simple ribbon or construction paper bow to her head!

What You Need:

1 cardboard bathroom tissue tube
1 sheet white construction paper
Scissors
White craft glue
Color wiggle eyes
Glue stick
1/2 sheet of black construction paper

What You Do:

Cut a small piece of black construction paper, about 2” x 1.5” and use glue stick to attach it toward the top of the cardboard tube.
Use white craft glue to attach wiggle eyes to the black paper.
Tear white construction paper into strips; reserve the end pieces with the straight edges to use at the top and bottom of the tube.
Use glue stick to attach the paper strips around the cardboard tube, overlapping as you go. Leave the wiggle eyes and a little of the black paper visible.
Cover remaining area with white construction paper and voila!

Tip: Colored wiggle eyes are available at your local craft supply store.
