Posted by Valerie | 0 comments

So much of the time, we forget to have a little fun with homeschooling. This month I want to bring you some fun… puppet style. I have included 12 links for creating puppets through paper, socks, and other craft materials. This is such a great way to incorporate a book that has been read. Make a puppet of your students favorite character… have a puppet show for the whole family! Enjoy these links…
