We use shadow puppets to recreate festive scenes, or Japanese Kamishibai story boxes to build suspense and excitement. By adding props, music, and simple crafts to our sessions, we ensure every child is part of the action, keeping them engaged long after the story ends. ### Bringing Stories Off the Page When we host a session, our goal is to move beyond the book. We want children to feel the atmosphere of the story, whether that is the quiet reverence of a Christmas shadow puppet performance or the high energy of an anniversary celebration. ### Why We Use Puppetry and Props We find that children engage deeply when they have something to watch and interact with. Our use of Kamishibai (traditional Japanese story boxes) and homemade puppets allows us to: * **Build Anticipation:** The theatrical reveal of each scene keeps children focused. * **Encourage Participation:** Whether it is making a Christmas tree craft or decorating dandiya after a story, children take the lessons home in their hands. * **Simplify Complex Emotions:** Using puppets allows us to address difficult themes like kindness and honesty in a way that feels playful and safe for children aged 3 and above. ### Join Our Community These special celebration events are a core part of life at our Rustam Bagh library. They are not just performances, but community gatherings where parents, children, and our storytellers come together to share laughter, music, and the occasional bit of messy, creative fun. We keep our sessions interactive, meaning there is always room for a question, a song, or a high-five when the story concludes. ## About Ourstoryshelf We are Ourstoryshelf, a community library here to make reading an adventure. When we host puppet shows or themed events, our goal is to get kids laughing and asking questions about the stories we share. We love seeing them engaged, whether they are watching shadow puppets or crafting their own story props.
