Homemade Puppets and Theaters Are Just as Much Fun!

The other day Molly and Ryan were having a very silly time putting on puppet shows. Then Molly’s mom, Erika, told me how they went on a class trip to see Aesop’s Fables and in it all kinds of puppets are created from “stuff!” You know, like socks, paper bags and much more. It was a great reminder of the essence of KIDFUN — having fun in creative ways. So, I found this picture of stick puppets and saw so many varieties. Erika reminded me that puppet theaters can easily be a sofa (by hiding behind it and having the puppets dance along the edge of the sofa) or by standing behind curtains or drapes and puppets popping out. Encourage your kids’ imaginations to fly with puppets! Thanks, Erika!
