Nightmare is a glorious beacon of light!!
My Mood:
Default Earth Puppets

Materials:
Use natural items found in the yard, tape, and glue.
The easiest kind of puppets can be made from a twig. Select a twig
that forks. You now have 2 arms and a handle to hold the puppet
with. Find a fallen flower, and tape the stem to the handle for the
head. You can also tape the stem of a fallen leaf to the handle for
the head. For clothing, wrap a leaf around the handle, and your
puppet has natural summer wear.
Another puppet can be made with a pine cone. Glue the pine cone to
the forked twig, for the head. Dried and fresh grass make loads of
hair styles, beards, and mustaches. Use seeds or small rocks for
eyes, nose, and mouth. Make clothing out of leaves and bonnets out
of flower petals or acorn caps.
Use a large box or table for the stage, and enjoy the show.
