I am a mom who after seeking out Pre-K teaching resources, decided to instead make up my own stuff. Why? Because my 3 year old does not fit into a mold and I have come to see that only I know what will really keep her attention. So I have made this blog to keep a Journal of all the lessons, art pojects and resources I have created and used. And because writing them on scrap papers and kept loosely in a binder just did not work out so well....

Puppet time!

We made puppets!  Cloth and paper.  Check it out here.
I posted the pics on my family blog.
Scroll past pictures of the kids to get to the puppets.




Here are the materials I used:
Paper puppets:
-stiff paper
-markers, crayons...whatever makes a mark
-packing tape
-large Popsicle sticks
These puppets we are using for a Noah's Ark lesson.  We are collecting animal puppets to fill an ark we painted.  Post to come!

Cloth puppets:
-felt like material, you can find it in a fabric or craft store
-thread, buttons, needle, sewing machine if one

I am not including instructions on how to make these.  It is pretty easy cheesy.
For the cloth puppets here are instructions.  They are but trickier.  Er...more tricky...
