Answer 4

Go to malls and ask a salesperson where to find them. If there isn't any, you can make your own. Below are some ways. You can make your own way of course!

1. Get brown paper bag (the small type) and draw or glue eyes, nose, ears and mouth. Then draw or glue their clothes.

2. Get brown cloth and sew it to make a pouch. Glue eyes, nose, ears, and mouth. Sew/glue on the clothes. Note: Your hand should be able to fit.

Good luck with puppet-storytelling!
