How To Make Ninja Turtle Gloves

I don’t know about you but at our house everything is about superheroes and costumes. My boys basically live in their many costumes. I actually love it though. I think it is so fun! They have a blast and everyone is happy. Sometimes they don’t even need a full costume, just some fun little fingerless gloves like these!

Growing up in the late 80s- early 90s the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles were a big deal. Maybe I wouldn’t think so if I didn’t have a brother who loved them but I remember enjoying watching the show and playing with the action figures. Leonardo was always my favorite, although I thought Mikey was so funny. I am definitely not a fan of some of the more recent iterations and animations. The original show (and live-action movie) are still the best! We have original series on DVD and that’s what the boys like to watch. After having made a few other styles of superhero gloves for the boys (I do count the Ninja Turtles as superheroes) they asked to be turtles and I came up with these. It took the little one a while to figure out how to put two fingers in each side of the glove but he got it eventually. 🙂

These are so much fun for them to play in and pretend!
