In Puppets Around the World make puppets and put on plays based on folktales from around the world. Puppets Around the World features over 100 puppets to make in the categories of finger, hand, and stick puppets. Also included are instructions for making stages, scenery and props -- everything you need to put on a puppet play. Several plays based on folktales are ready for you to stage.

Designed for ages 8 and up.
*With supervision and reading help, younger children will enjoy these projects, too.

The projects in Puppets Around the World are:

• Stick Puppets - a dozen puppets that are very simple to make, just color, cut, and attach to a stick

• Cone Finger Puppets - a cone of felt and a head are all it takes to make eleven animal puppets and two Chinese children puppets
• 3-Finger Puppets - it takes three fingers to get these puppets moving -- a swaying elephant, a stampeding triceratops, and many more
• Simple Mitt Puppets - make these versatile hand puppets from paper, felt or cloth -- just add a few cut outs to make these puppets with a Mayan theme
• Basic Hand Puppets - patterns to make a dozen traditional cloth hand puppets
