Description of activity: This workshop will show you how to turn an every-day object into an amazing puppet. You’ll play with a plastic pot, a carpet and a pair of socks and make them into a friendly dog; or you’ll give new life to two plastic bottles and transform them into a colorful bird. Participants will explore how to manipulate the puppet-object and make it into a believable character.  There is no limit to the creativity and fun reusing any ordinary object in our house or school, and creating an extraordinary puppet.
