On my way to the doctors office and I had a wonderful idea for a rather large craft! To create a puppet theater using a left over tri-fold board, fabric and my trusty hot glue gun!
I was inspired by this image I found on The Parents Choice website under Puppetry: The Playful Art.
As a pre-school teacher and childhood education major I understand the important role imaginary play has in the development of young children's minds and motor skills. I will begin my craft adventure today and post step by step photos for you the viewer to follow as I craft :)
Stay tuned...
