the magic of newspapers

One of many great materials to use in the puppetry world are newspapers. You can munch them, squeeze them, make big or small creatures out of them and they produce nice sounds... Plus, it's cheap and in the container of the local publisher (should I tell my source?) you can find a good bunch of them.
Together with these twelve girls we discovered the qualities of the material. Newspaper animals and monsters were all around. And afterwards the girls made these fantastic characters, Sammy, Lady Gaga, Smoking Guy and Gardener Lady :) Manipulating with three, they prepared short stories inspired by ... newspaper articles, of course.
Here's a little example of our work. I enjoyed it very much!! Thank you, girls, good job!

  1. That looks like such good fun. I remember when I was little we would make all kinds of things out of newspaper.

    Have a fabulous weekend,
