Puppet Power! Big Stories from Little Hands
At BCLR, learning is more than just letters and numbers, it’s about sparking imagination, nurturing creativity, and building confident little learners from the very beginning. And today, our amazing Nursery students stepped into a world of storytelling, giggles, and magic with an exciting Puppet-Making Adventure!
From the moment the materials were set out, our little artists were all hands on deck. snipping, sticking, decorating, and creating their very own Popsicle, hand, and sock puppets using everything from googly eyes to fuzzy yarn and bright buttons. The energy was electric and the creativity Off the charts!
But the fun didn’t stop at crafting. Oh no! With puppets in hand, the classroom turned into a mini theatre, echoing with laughter and animated voices. Each child had a story to tell, some funny, some sweet, and all bursting with imagination. Watching them bring their characters to life with twinkling eyes and proud smiles was simply heart-melting.
While the puppets danced and talked, so much was happening beneath the surface:
Fine motor skills were in action as little fingers cut, glued, and stitched.
Problem-solving blossomed as they figured out how to make their puppets move and speak.
Self-expression took center stage as each child shared their unique voice and story.
Confidence grew as they stood up, puppets in hand, ready to perform!
At BCLR, we believe in laying strong foundations, not just academically, but emotionally and socially too. Activities like this are designed to bring out the best in our students, fostering curiosity, collaboration, and creativity from a very young age.
So here’s to our Nursery stars, our storytellers, our creators, our puppet masters! We can’t wait to see where their imaginations take them next.
