This trio of simple spoon puppets are such a hoot to make, and even more fun to play with! This fun and festive project from Christmas Craft Book by Laura Minter and Tia Williams is super easy to follow, meaning even the littlest crafter can get involved – cosy up in front of the fire on a winter afternoon and whip up a batch, then all that’s left to do is put on a show!
