Scarf Marionette Puppets

Having seen the videos below, and others in the series, I decided that our Scouts could probably manage to do something similar.

We put trestle tables on their side to display scenery and the Scouts dangled their puppets over from the back to perform. Each patrol made about 3 puppets, the scenery, along with a script / storyboard after having come up with a concept for a story that they wanted to re-enact. We used recycling materials, tape, cotton, carboard, stapler, bamboo canes, etc.
