The Puppet Lab: Storytelling & Craft Workshops
Learn how to turn stories into interactive experiences. Join my hands-on workshop to master voice modulation and build 10 unique puppets that you can use in the classroom or at home.
This video captures the essence of The Puppet Lab. Listen to testimonials from educators from schools like Prakriya Green Wisdom and Royal Concorde, and see how we create a supportive, hands-on environment for learning puppetry and storytelling.
My Puppet Lab is available both online and in-person for parents and teachers. I provide all the materials and guidance needed for you to create 10 unique puppets and learn how to use them effectively in storytelling and rhyme sessions.
About The Puppet Lab: Storytelling & Craft
This is not a lecture where you just sit back and watch. Over our 5-hour session, we get practical—you will actually build 10 different types of puppets to take home. Please bring your own scissors, stapler, marker, and fabric glue. It gets a little messy, but by the end of the day, you will have the ready-to-use props and the confidence to use them for storytelling, rhyme sessions, or engaging special needs children.
Why Puppets Work
Puppets are more than just toys. When you use them in storytelling, you provide a visual anchor for children, making it easier to capture their attention and hold it. My sessions focus on how to use these tools to simplify complex concepts, improve your narrative pacing, and even help children who are struggling with engagement.
What You Will Learn
- Voice Modulation: Learn how to change your pitch and tone to give each character a distinct personality.
- Narrative Pacing: Discover how to use puppets to slow down or speed up a story based on the audience's reaction.
- Special Needs Adaptation: I teach techniques that are inclusive, making storytelling accessible for special needs children who benefit from multi-sensory experiences.
Practical Details
I offer this workshop in a full-day, 5-hour format. Whether we are meeting online via Zoom or in person in South Bangalore, the goal is the same: you walk out with the skill to use puppets effectively immediately. Because I custom-prepare material kits for every participant, I require prior registration for all sessions. This ensures everyone has exactly what they need to create their 10 puppets without scrambling for supplies on the day.
