The Satisfied Mute is a hand puppet for ages 6-12. It is a straightforward story whose characters have evolutionary aspects as they change over time. Therefore, it is necessary to make several puppets for the same role when required. The term “puppets” is broad. It covers many techniques that manipulation of objects has in common. Each genre has its applications, limitations, and pleasures.

Le Muet Satisfied !! It is a puppet piece taken from “the pieces for puppets” by Evelyne Lecueq. Read the play to the children first. Then make them realize, through games, the different forms that communication takes: words, gestures, images, music, and their complementarities.

Children to practice the movements

Make the puppets together and when they are ready, take time for the children to practice the movements. The hand puppets should be transparent in the meaning of their gestures and not confusing because they are simple.

Halloween is ideal for children’s crafts

With so many fun and spooky characters like witches, ghosts, bats, and more, there are endless amounts of cute crafts to do with kids. Here’s a simple idea for creating a kids mummy means, which not only requires some clothes that you assumably already have on writing but is again somewhat leisurely to make, even for young children.

Close the envelope

Start by cutting the tab used to close the envelope, and it will not be used here. The open part of the envelope will be where you will have to slide your hand to bring the mummy puppet to life. Then cut strips about 5 cm wide on the white sheets. Fully glue one side of the envelope and apply the strips in different layers.

Let the white paper strips hang down the sides and when you are done gluing the paper strips to the bottom of the envelope, use your scissors to cut off the protruding ends. Finish off your mummy puppet by gluing on two wavy eyes. Once the glue is dry, you can reach into the envelope and have fun with it.

Try creating a scary little story! Tip

For younger children who still have trouble cutting with scissors, I encourage you to cut the paper strips ahead of time and let them apply the glue to the envelope and then glue the stripes and the rolling eyes. An original idea by Artsy Momma
