“Baby shark do-do-do-do-do-do…”

Of course we all know the Baby Shark song, even if some of us are not so fond of it right now!

I have really great memories of singing the Baby Shark song when I was a kid, and I’ve had so many requests to make some printable shark puppets, that I just couldn’t resist drawing some sharks!

There are quite a few versions of the Baby Shark song out there. I remember singing a quite gory version of the song when I was a kid, that ended with a surfer having his limbs bitten off! But I learned a more kid-friendly versions when I was teaching preschool, and those are the words we sing today.

Do your kids love sharks?

If your kids love sharks they’ll love learning all about them with these shark printables and they’ll love making these cute shark bookmarks!.

How to Make the Printable Shark Puppets

These printable shark puppets are great for singing Shark Songs, or for using with playdough or for imaginative play. They’d be great fun to use during Shark Week too.

To make these fun shark puppets all you need is our free printable (download below) a printer, some cardstock, scissors, tape, and some craft sticks.

I use a regular inkjet printer to print all my printable puppets. We printed our family of friendly sharks (and the little fish!) onto matte photo paper, but you could also use light cardstock, or regular printer paper and laminate the puppets after you have cut them out.

We use tape or a glue dot to attach a coloured craft stick to the back of each shark to turn them into puppets. You can also use straws, or bamboo skewers, or leave them without sticks so they can be used in lots of different ways.
