puppet accessory
February 17th, 2009
What child doesn’t like puppets? Almost everyone I know, watched or still watches puppet shows. They’re fun and it’s easy to get immersed in the stories. Children love that puppet shows are interactive. I’ve seen firsthand how puppet shows can keep young children mesmerized for hours.
During my short stint as a pre-school teacher, I loved putting together puppet shows for my students. They participate by helping me “write” the story. My favorite puppet accessory was a small wooden guitar. My students would request their favorite nursery songs and often sing along with the puppets. Plus, puppet shows make for great teaching tools as well.
