Step 1
Print out the Backyardigans characters and help kids cut out the shapes of the characters.
Step 2
Trace the shapes of the characters onto foam sheets or cardboard. Cut out the foam or cardboard.
Step 3
Help kids glue the characters to the foam or cardboard and allow to dry.
Step 4
Use a hole puncher to cut two holes at the bottoms of each character about 1 to 2 inches from the bottom. Using the puncher, punch around the circles to make the holes big enough for kids to poke their fingers through.
Step 5
Have kids stick their fingers through the two holes and have fun making the characters walk, run, and--of course--dance!
