Tips for Creating a Puppy Ministry Theater
It’s so easy!
Supplies:
- Printed puppet theater on card stock
- Two toilet paper rolls per person (any item to create a stand works)
- Scissors
- Tape
- Crayons or markers (to decorate puppets and theater)
1. Cut along all the dotted lines. This will separate the puppets from the stage and it gives your theater its windows.
2. Glue or tape your toilet paper rolls (or other items) to create the stand for your theater. These should tape to the back (unless the kids decorate them to be a part of the stage—Roman pillars?)
3. Now, decorate the finger puppets.
4. Cut them out.
5. Measure around kids’ fingers and tape to fit.
6. And there you have it! A finger puppet theater.
7. Let kids partner up to present the lesson. They decide who is the finger teacher and finger student.
God’s word is exciting and so very important; so let’s make learning about Him something our kids look forward to. And let’s try to create something with them they won’t leave on the seats at church or toss the minute they get home.
Our goal is to keep God in their thoughts. After all, kids play “superhero” make believe with each other. So why not reenact Bible stories?
