About this collection
If you are joining The Puppet Lab, please bring your scissors, stapler, and adhesive so we can dive straight into the craft. My goal is to ensure you leave not just with new knowledge, but with 10 completed puppets you can immediately use in your own storytelling sessions or classrooms.
Whether you are a parent looking to build a stronger connection with your child or a teacher wanting to introduce fresh, multi-sensory techniques into your classroom, these sessions focus on what works in the real world. I blend my 15 years of experience with pedagogical best practices to keep things simple, effective, and fun.
The Puppet Lab
Storytelling is more than just reading a book. In these sessions, we focus on the mechanics of engagement. You will learn to construct age-specific puppets and master voice modulation techniques that hold a child's attention. These are not just theoretical workshops; you will walk away with tangible tools you can use the very next day. Both online and offline options are available.
Kindergarten Readiness
Preparing a child for school is about more than just academics. My approach emphasizes intellectual, social-emotional, and physical development. I provide structured, developmentally appropriate activities that help ease the transition into kindergarten. These programs are designed to turn potential worries into confident milestones for your child.
All workshops are hosted out of our Jayanagar center, with various sessions available online to accommodate different schedules. Because I keep group sizes small to ensure every participant gets individual attention, please ensure you check current schedules and register in advance to secure your spot.
