What ‘s “inside” you that you struggle to live with and struggle to find ways to talk about in ways others are prepared to listen?

Step One: Make Puppets

Ideas for making puppets

You will have your own, but here’s a few simple ways of making puppets to get you started.

 

In pilot workshops we found that participants did not need much to get started, just a bunch of simple stuff, space and freedom to unleash their creativity and chance to express themselves.

Start Simple, for example:

Three easy, simple ways you can start making puppets

Paper bag

Sock puppet

Spoon puppet

Plate

This  puppet of Albert was made from a paper plate. Draw, cut-out, stick it on a stick, done.
