How to Make Puppets
Playing with puppets is such a great way to foster imagination, creativity, and teamwork in kids. We have a few store-bought puppets that my kids have always loved to play with. And I’ve been wanting to get my kids a big puppet theater for years now. So we were beyond-thrilled when we received a Floor Standing Puppet Theater from Alex Toys. Now we want to get working on making some new puppets to use with it. Here are some fun ideas we’ve found for how to make puppets.

A Fun Puppet Theater from Alex Toys
The kids LOVE their new puppet theater. I love that it’s big and sturdy enough for both Sawyer and Priscilla to get behind it to put on their collaborative puppet shows. Having it around really encourages them to play together and use their imaginations. And you can have one of your own. Alex Toys has so graciously offered a Standing Puppet Theater for one lucky B-Inspired Mama reader! It’s easy to enter below…
