Puppet Making Party

As part of our Arts Ed program the students are creating puppet plays using the story of The Gingerbread Man as a base and mixing it with another story to make it silly.  The fun part about creating a puppet play is that we need to also create puppets.  As I contemplate the level of button sewing skills that eight year olds have I realize that I am going to need help! 

The puppet creation celebration is scheduled for Wednesday November 21st and I am looking for as much help as I can possibly get.  We will create from 1:15 until 3:10 (with a coffee break in the middle to regroup).

Of course to make puppets we will need socks, scraps of fabric, buttons, needles, thread, and imagination. If you are unable to join us on the 21st that is fine, please send at least two (clean) socks with your child and any other wonderful things you think will make good puppets.

Picture retakes are also on the 21st so there may be students zipping out for pictures while we work.

Thanks!
