Project Description
PUPPETS TO GO
Inside the Kits
Each kit focuses on a theme and contains the following:
- Three children’s books
- Hand and/or finger puppets
- A puppeteering booklet
A fluffy bunny. A charming lion. A gentle turtle. Stories come to life with puppets, and help your child create a world of make-believe.
GVPL’s Puppets to Go kits encourage children to stretch their imaginations and their storytelling skills. Together, read a book from the kit, then let your child take the lead with the puppets, retelling the story in his or her own words or inventing a tale with new characters, personalities, experiences and feelings.
Puppets are a great tool to help children develop speaking and listening skills, gain confidence to express ideas and use their imaginations to create a world of make-believe.
One kit can be checked out at a time per valid, adult GVPL library card. The loan period is 21 days if there are no holds; 14 days if there are holds. The kits can be picked up and returned to any branch during open hours.
