Consider using chairs to string together sheets or perhaps using cardboard to draw out a setting for your story. You can spend as little or as much time as you wish on this!
One tip is that a background that we can identify on a photo should be fairly straightforward (like "beach" or "backyard" or "playground").

*Note that this only works on iPad and iPhones. It is free in the Apple App Store.

if you aren't able to access the app (or want to see what I used!), take a look at the slideshow below.

Design at least 2 sock puppets that give you joy! Your sock puppets need to have:
1) eyes
2) mouth
3) hair/hat (some kind of head flair)
4) an outfit
Be creative and flexible - you will put on a show with your sock puppets!
Test by: put a sock puppet on each hand and put on a show. *Optional: Use your puppet theater background and script to make the show really come to life!

1. Explore the sock puppet options and create at least one digital puppet show to get inspired.
2. In the Sock Puppets App, you can experiment with different types of sock puppets, choose different backgrounds, and get ideas for props! You can even record a script voiceover.
3. This is an optional step, but I recommend it because it might give you silly ideas to try out on your own.

Draw a blueprint/sketch for your sock puppets.

Make sure that you incorporate eyes, a mouth, an outfit, and hair/hat. I recommend thinking of a “character” before you start. For example, is your sock puppet a pirate adventurer? Is he or she an animal? If your sock puppet a space alien?

Basic materials:

-Socks (old ones work best!)

-tacky glue or hot glue work best; glue dots (in your engineering bag) will also work!

Decorative materials:

-Felt/fabric

-Googly eyes

-Buttons/gems

-Pebbles or sticks

-Pipe cleaners

-knick-knacks that can be decorations

# data[].attributes.body
If you are interested in trying sewing, this is a great project to experiment with sewing since you can sew the felt and fabric onto the sock puppets. There is NO pressure to do this, just a possible extension if you’re up to it.

What went well?
What was fun?
What was hard?

# data[].attributes.body
Decide what the storyline of your puppet show will be. Consider including descriptions of where your show takes places.

In a script, you usually list a character's name and then their dialogue in "quotes". For example, your script might start like this:
Puppet #1 Seagull: "It is a windy day out here on the California Coast today!"
Puppet #2 Crab: "I scuttle along the beach as I try to evade these seagulls!"

Take a 5 minute break and then challenge yourself to try creating your puppets in a different way.

The hair keep coming off then the tongue came off. So, I just got tape instead of glue then it was fixed.

Carson's Sock Puppets: George Washington and Bob.

# data[].attributes.body
George Washington has fluffy white hair, black fur with white spots and a red mouth. Bob has pointy hair antennas, wings and a purple mouth.  The hardest part was making Bob. I had trouble with the antennas.

# data[].attributes.body
He has red laser eyes and a poison spike tail (made with sharks' teeth).

Though not quite in the Rock n' Roll genre, Vanilla Ice makes a comeback as a sock in this little ditty performed by Zola

We made Sankey from dad's old sock- ewww- we washed it. and mom had yarn and thread for his mohawk, and we added fangs and a tongue! His hat is his head flair.

# data[].attributes.body
Eloise: I used a plastic cup with the sock over it to keep its shape while gluing the hair and attaching the parts. It was really hard to glue the hair because it kept falling off.

Alice: It was hard to keep the parts together while it glued. I have hair attached to the sock and I used a foam strip to keep it all in place, which I kept on my puppet.

Enjoy our show!
