Create-A-Puppet Workshop
46 episodes
Short make-along puppet workshops from the Center for Puppetry Arts (Atlanta) -- the largest US nonprofit devoted to the art of puppetry. In each ~3-minute video a teaching artist leads children step by step through building a paper puppet -- rod, hand, shadow, tabletop, string, or glowing ultraviolet -- many tied to a favorite storybook. Gather scissors, paper, and tape, press play, and build a puppet the class can bring to life.
