Finger puppets!

6/26/2013

Never underestimate the power of finger puppets! Even when you're just not in the mood to "keep it fun," as we're always told, a finger puppet or two always brings a smile. Here are some ideas.

•Add a new puppet every time you play a song/work on a technique. Elephant likes Twinkle Variation A, Parrot likes the Flower Song. Etc.

•Have an animal puppet roar, meow, bark, or whatever, every time they hear something they like.

•Slip one on the tip of the bow and take it for a ride.

•Put all of them on for a concert.

•Have them dance to the music.

These are just a few ideas. I would love to hear more!
