We all know kids love to play on iPads and interact online, but too much screen time is likely not good for them.

The good news is there are lots of fun things you can do with your kids that don’t involve screens.

If your kids love the game Among Us, they’ll be so excited to make this Among Us paper bag puppet craft!

This easy paper bag craft will take one of your child’s favorite games and translate it into a hands-on activity that’s screen-free.

It’s a fun way to get your kids interacting and having fun together. And with so many different colors to choose from, your kids can create their favorite characters!

Supplies

• Brown paper bag
• Colored cardstock or construction paper
• Scissors
• Glue
• Among Us template (enter your email in the form at the end of this post to have the link sent to you)

Directions

Download the Among Us template, print, and cut out the pieces you need.

Optional: If you want a colored background, glue the flap and main portion pieces to the brown paper bag. We used a dark blue color to simulate space.

Take the mask piece and glue it to the right side of the head, with a little bit of it hanging off the edge.

Position the upper glare piece in the top, right-hand corner of the mask and glue it in place.

Next, glue the top portion of the character to the flap of the brown paper bag.

Place the lower body so it lines up with the upper body and glue it to the main portion of the paper bag.

Finish off your character by gluing the backpack inside the side flap of the paper bag.

That’s it!

Now you and your kids can create all the characters from Among Us and even create new skins they wish were in the game!

Space Unit For Kids

For younger kids who are interested in Among Us, why not create an entire space themed unit for them to learn? Below are some ideas that may be able to help!

8 Little Planets is a fun space book for the youngest of kids. It has engaging rhyming words and cute illustrations!

On The Launchpad is a simple space-themed book for young children learning how to count! Read it nightly to help them learn!

My First Book of Planets is perfect for children who want to learn more about space.

Crafting is a great way to develop fine motor skills, creativity, and patience in children, so try adding a few more crafts to your unit. Below are some more space-related crafts:

• 3D Rocket Craft
• Earth Paper Craft For Kids
• Rocket Ship Name Craft

These space color by numbers are a perfect activity for practicing fine motor skills and learning numbers! These downloadable coloring pages include an astronaut, the Earth, and a rocketship- all with numbers on them to tell your child what color to use. Your child can practice counting while having fun coloring this printable!

For another easy-to-use activity, use these space do a dot printables for an exciting way for kids to practice fine motor skills while also learning letters and numbers. These sheets will keep your kid entertained while you’re working on other tasks around the house!

These space pattern block mats are one of our favorite STEM activities because it’s so easy to set up! Just print, laminate for durability, and give your child some pattern blocks. They’re great for fine motor skills, learning shapes, and recognizing patterns.

Don’t forget about sensory play! Kids love it and it’s great for exploration. This space play dough kit is loaded with fun props and glittery play dough they’ll love. Another great idea is this space sensory bin.

Encourage imaginative play with this cool astronaut costume.
