Shadow Puppets



    In this post, we're going to be looking at and making some Shadow Puppets!



You will need:
- Thick card/paper, dark if possible
    - Scissors
    - Torch
    - Tape
    - Stick
    - Pencil


Draw whatever character you choose on your paper. If you have black paper, use a white pencil for a nice contrast!

Next, carefully cut out your creation. Be sure to get an adult to help with this.
Then you can attach a stick to the back with tape and your puppet is complete!

         

    Use your torch to shine it at your puppet and watch its shadow emerges! If you don’t have a torch, find a nice patch of sunlight to create your shadows in the garden or through a window.
