Shadow "Puppets"

Recently Little Boats has started to notice and become interested in shadows.  So I decided to start this blog off with our most recent activity…Shadow "Puppets".

We used foam sheets (already had due to our life size board game),
Duct Tape, stir sticks that I pocketed at a recent trip to the zoo, and animal shaped cookie cutters.

Step 1: Trace animal shapes onto the foam 

Step 2: Cut the shapes out, attach sticks to shapes with duct tape

Step 3: PLAY PLAY PLAY!!!  We couldn't wait until bedtime to try 

these guys out so we took to the windowless bathroom for a test run. Our story 

is a fish,snake and octopus playing soccer.

Update!

Big Boats is back from duty and he's loving the puppets too!!!
