Cardboard Box Theatre
Why this activity? This craft is fun and very interactive as children learn how to engage in an activity while collaborating with others to create a unique theatre! Children can pretend to be different characters and experiment with their imagination and ideas of reality vs. make belief. Also, this craft can help foster children's social skills by presenting in front of an audience. As a result children may feel a sense of empowerment &/personal accomplished!
Items you will need: Medium or large size cardboard box (varies on the size of the puppets), felt, tissue paper, material (i.e. silk, cotton, suede, leather), yarn/string/ribbon, construction paper, makers, paint, glitter, jewels, clothes pins, glue (hot glue-optional), tape, stapler and scissor(s).
Where can you buy the items? The cardboard box you can get from any grocery store and or any leftover/unused boxes at home!
Suitable ages: 2 ½ years old to 12 years old.
***Please note: younger children may need help by an adult &/an older child when creating Cardboard Box Theatre! ***
