Puppet theater

Materials needed
Cotton Fabric 5cm longer than the height of your door frame and 4 cm wider.
Two oblong pieces 34cm by 62 for center curtain, plus a few

scraps of contrasting fabric for decoration.
Seven large buttons 1.60m of 2.5cm webbing 55cm length of dowelling Velcro sew n stick the width of door frame,
Sewing thread (pinking shears optional) Wooden spoons scrap material and comic or magazines.

Sew a small seam all around the long fabric to neaten
edges, then sew Velcro ½ cm from the top
The other half will be stuck to the top of your door frame to hang the curtain on.
Cut a window at a comfortable height for your child to work behind.
Using the oblong piece of fabric for the
curtains sew to top of window and using contrasting color fabric sew to the sides for decoration here you may also sew
the buttons on for extra effect.
As shown.


Now you are ready to make your wooden spoon puppets,
Here is an example of the puppets to give you an idea of how to make them.

With a bit of imagination you could make Bat man,
The Simpsons, Winnie the Pooh.
Or maybe a pop star or favorite actor.


You can use scraps of material for the clothing and paint on the faces, if you are not good at painting you may find the
faces you want in a magazine or comic to cut out and stick on
Here is a guide of how to make the cloths: Cut out two of the tunic pieces as shown.


Sew seams together stuff a little wadding in sleeves for arms and tuck the hands into end of sleeve and sew in place.

To make the pants for the boy just cut two oblong pieces of fabric sew and stuff with a little wadding then sew to bottom
of tunic.
I am sure you will be able to come up with your own wonderful costumes for your puppets.

This is great fun at a Birthday party to while away an hour and children love pretending to be one of their hero’s.
