By taking photographs of classmates, pets, and family members you can create plays using digital puppets.

This simple little project requires a digital camera.

Decide who the characters will be in the play you are writing.

Take photos of each of those people or pets, or choose people to represent the characters you have created. Be sure to get full body shots.

Print the photos at a larger size.

Cut around the shape. Using one piece of tape, loosely attach the photo to tagboard or a sturdier type of material. Cut around the photo shape again. P

Put a stick in between the two layers and securely attach the two layers together. Now you are ready to present your puppet show!
