Synopsis

LEVEL: Key Stage 3 to adult. With the help of easy instructions written in a clear and charming style, you can turn bed sheets into mountains and fridge boxes into stately giraffes. Materials range from brown paper bags and crepe paper streamers to scraps of decorative fabric and shimmering bells. Activities include puppets of all sizes, masks and other, large-than-life characters. Each project is imaginative, yet simple enough for parents and teachers alike to prepare and supervise. Instructions for producing sound effects and scenery, and scripts of folk tales in which the puppets and masks can be used, round out the theme, making this a complete storytelling arts book.
