Make Easy Elephant Gloves

Make these Easy Elephant Gloves and watch the little ones giggle and shout for more. These Elephant Gloves would be a good puppet to use when reading their favorite book about elephants. Gloves are a great Dollar Store purchase if you don’t have an old pair laying around the house. We’ve provided both a regular pattern and a SVG file so you can use what works for you.
