Get some Puppet Ideas

 

Musician Marya Hart plays piano and organ in our Julglädje show every year. She also writes and directs music for a children’s theater project called Fidgety Fairytales. Watch this video of one of those shows to get some ideas for making your own horse puppet to show us during the show.
