1. Puppet showtime stage

You can create your very own puppets with items your parents already have around the house. First, you'll need some old socks or lunch-size brown paper bags. Then, get busy decorating them with markers, crayons, glitter, sequins, string, ribbons, yarn, buttons — even dry macaroni! Give your puppets names and funny voices. You might want to think up a special story for them. Maybe one puppet is lost and can't find his way home. Maybe another puppet has superhuman powers
