Fun With Puppets!

As part of our Skill-based activities with Faith Acts and Ramakrishna Mission Boys' Home, we conduct puppetry lessons with the children to boost their soft skills.

Objectives

Puppetry is a skill-based activity with the intended purpose of allowing children to have an emotional development through crafting puppets
With this knowledge, it allows them to use another coping strategy to deal with negative emotions
Puppetry aims to foster the growth of social skills by encouraging children to create their own narratives based on an awareness of how emotion regulation functions and the hand-mouth coordination required for reading and manipulating the puppets

Why Puppetry?

To promote emotional development by utilising puppets to symbolise their emotions
To develop self-esteem and motor skill, through 1 puppetry team skit performance, utilising non verbal cues, verbal communication and tones
To allow the children to express and identify different emotions such as sadness, anger and happiness through puppetry and visual expressions which enables them to identify emotions in the real world context
To instil puppetry skills such as speech, drama and tone
