Paper Clip Puppets

A few days ago I made these little puppets with paper clips and cardboard.  The kids were really coming up with some entertaining stories for them.  If you want to try it out, they're very simple to make.  First, bend the middle of a paper clip so it stands up.  Then cut out the puppets, making sure the corrugated cardboard holes are vertical.  Paint or color the puppets.  Now slide the paper clip through the holes of the cardboard puppet.  (Just push it firmly into the cardboard.  It holds very nicely.)  Now play!  I'd like to make some cars and trucks like this too!
