Ta Da! Finished Puppet Stage

 Friday was the big reveal. My high school art class presented their puppet stage and handmade sock puppets to the preschool class. We stayed to play with the kids (but basically just stood their while the little ones attacked each other with puppets)
 
 The cardboard I purchased to make this stage was MUCH harder to cut then I had initially thought. In fact, it took me all of 45 minutes to saw through one giraffe face hole and the main puppet area. Next time I will bring some sort of power tool and finish it off!  For now though the kids enjoyed checking themselves out as giraffes.
 Can anyone say, awwww....how cute!  Puppets shown include the popular piggy puppet, alligator, frog, zebra, duck and some sort of furry monster.
 Some of my class watching an original impromptu puppet show. One little boy (in red) was fascinated by Julia : )
Sisters.  (and a puppy dog puppet) 
 
The entire puppet stage...some of the preschoolers...and some of the teens that worked on it.... The tree needs more holes cut out, like the giraffe side I will get to this next week!
