1. Make at least one puppet, and make or buy two other puppets.
Before you make (or buy) your puppets, you should have an idea of what the puppet show is oging to be about, and the type of puppets you will use. It is generally a good idea to write a script first, and then develop the puppets needed for the script. If you will be performing for a multi-cultural audience, you might consider using animal characters instead of human characters. People of any race can identify with an animal more easily than they can with a human character belonging to a different race.
There are many types of puppets to choose from, and the choice will depend on the skill of the puppet maker as well as the skill of the puppeteer. Because they are generally easier to build and work with, we will present only three types here: rod puppets, glove puppets, and shadow puppets.
