Using props to tell stories and demonstrating techniques of effective storytelling with creativity and imagination.
The child picks a familiar story (i.e. a 2 fairy tale, folk tale, seasonal story (Christmas / Easter) or makes up
their own story.
Help the child make puppets to represent the different characters in the story. Talk about why the child wants to tell this specific story. Talk about how the child is creating the puppets (e.g., the materials are using, the names of the characters you are making, what the characters do in the story).
Choose where to set up the stage for the puppet show (e.g., behind a table, a bookshelf, a sheet turned into a curtain, the sofa).
The child sits behind the stage and rests their puppet hands on the stage allowing only the upper body and arms of the puppet to be seen by the audience.
Let the puppet show begin! The child uses the puppets to act out their story.
