WORKSHOP 1 - Make a Paper Plate Stick Puppet

A simple but classic workshop. Kids are able to let their imaginations run wild and create a colorful stick puppet using paper plates and other included supplies. At the conclusion of the workshop each child is encouraged to display their puppet to the others; including coming up with a name and voice for their puppet creation.

WORKSHOP 2 - Make a Butterfly or Dragonfly Finger Puppet

Children choose from either a blank butterfly or dragonfly template. They then design and decorate their own puppet's wings and face. By inserting a finger in the back of the puppet, it can magically come to life, flapping its wings and flying through the air. Weather permitting, the children can even fly their puppets through the theater gardens following the workshop.

WORKSHOP 3 - Make a Fluorescent Fish or Shark Stick Puppet

They decorate it using a combination of fluorescent and non-fluorescent materials. We then attach a control stick to the base, turning their fish or shark into a stick puppet. At the conclusion the children are able to show their puppet beneath a black light and see their final creation glow in vivid colors.
