Puppet Theatre!


 

Zoe and Austyn started out wanting to do a theatrical play of some sort and it evolved into a puppet theatre. So we took a box that was already painted on the outside and made it into a theatre. We didn't finish it yet, but they wanted to use it right away and couldn't wait for it to be completed. I'm sure this will be an on going project. Austyn cut out stars for the night sky he wanted in the background and Zoe painted the inside since she loves to paint and she is the smallest. After they were done and it was just about dry they attempted a play with no script. They had so much fun with this. I think we now have a puppet theater and probably don't need to keep that on their Christmas list. LOL!

What a wonderful idea! I'll have to suggest my son do this with his cardboard box "house". Thank you for the inspiration.

I hope we finish it. I'll post the finished puppet theater if we do.
