Last month, my son picked a pretty over the top idea for his Valentine’s Day Mailbox. When he told me he wanted a Chewbacca Valentine Mailbox, I knew we could do it and that it would be a total hit (and it was!). The idea for the mailbox came from a craft that they did at a Star Wars day a few months back.
And now that we have created the mailbox, I thought why not recreate the original craft! This Chewbacca Paper Bag Puppet is an easy craft for kids of all ages and perfect as a rainy day activity.
