Description: Cheryl Henson, daughter of Muppets founder Jim Henson, along with the Muppet Workshop (and Kermit the Frog), shows kids how to make over 35 puppets using stuff from around the house -- with a little help from the googly eyes, funny noses, feathers, and fuzzy fur included. There's Dixie Dragon (principle ingredient, a sock), Jughead (small plastic jar), Spidey Jones (old work glove), Metalmouth (bandage boxes), Princess Esterrilla (wooden spoon and chopsticks), and Pinky Roach (pink eraser). In addition, the authors show how to talk the puppet talk and walk the puppet walk, how to write a script and put on a show. It's a complete kit. Just add glue, and a little imagination.
Notes: Kit contains puppet-making materials: eyes, noses, tongues, eye pupils, colored fur, and feathers.
