Nutcracker finger puppetsHere you can make finger puppets of Clara, the heroine of The Nutcracker, and one of the Russian cossack dancers from the ballet. Poke your fingers through the holes to make their legs, and you can make them do a dance called the Trepak, where they bend their knees and kick their feet. Further down, you'll also find a sheet that tells you how to make your own finger puppet of King Rat, the villian of the ballet!   |
