Activity #30: Put on sock puppet show
Description: Use your new sock puppet to make a puppet show. We crouched behind the side of the bed to make the show. The show you put on does not have to be overly creative. Telling a story of an event that happened during the day works well. This may get your child so excited that they want to put on their own puppet show.
Age: Any
Purpose:
Story telling
Recalling past events
Prep time: minimal
What you’ll need: a sock puppet. If you don’t have a sock puppet you can use stuffed animals
Fun Factor: This was a big hit with the children. They laughed and really enjoyed the story telling. My son on the spectrum got so excited about it, he wanted to tell a story too.
Tip: You can use the sock puppet to make other parts of you day fun as well. Here are some ideas:
Read a story with the sock puppet as the narrator
Use the sock puppet to count down when you are turning off the lights at bedtime
Use the sock puppet to sing silly song during teeth brushing
