Our Design and Technology topic for Spring Term 1 was designing and making our own hand puppets! The children put a lot of effort into researching how puppets work and used this to create a number of possible designs. After choosing their final design, the children cut out their shapes from coloured felt and carefully sewed them all together. We then used lots of different materials to decorate the puppets so that they matched the animal or character they wanted to make. They evaluated how good effective their puppets were and how they could have been improved, but overall the children were very happy with their creations!
