Make-Your-Own Puppet Show


 Have on Hand:   socks, yarn, felt, glue, paper bags, tongue depressors, fairy tale books

Boredom Buster Description:      What better way to combat boredom than make a puppet show.  Make puppets from socks, paper bags, or sticks and paper.  Fairy tales are a great place to start for the story telling part.  Read a simple story, like The 3 Bears, or the 3 Billy Goats Gruff and retell the story with puppets. Invite a friend to watch or help with the telling.

Boredom Buster Bio:      As a child, my friends and I spent the summers entertaining each other with puppet plays.  I highly recommend it for bumping boredom out of the house.
