My Project

I use a lot of puppets in my primary grade music classes to help learn songs. The students enjoy learning a song from a puppet friend, especially my ENL students! Even my older students always enjoy looking at the puppets in the music room and asking me questions about them.

My students would love being able to see the puppets on display all the time in the music room.

We currently just got our brand new music room after two years of building renovations and all of our puppet friends are currently in a storage cabinet. We would love to have puppet stands to display them all the time in the music room.
