In the Puppets and Pop Ups project, your child will create puppets and use them to communicate with and tell stories. They will find out how puppets are used all over the world to tell stories. They will learn to join materials in different ways, and find out how shadows are formed.

Supporting your child at home

• Watch a puppet show or puppet TV programme together. Talk about the puppets and how they move and talk.
• Make simple sock puppets and use them to have silly conversations.
• Share a wide range of fairy tales.
