Did you make your puppets?
play_circle
pause_circle
Yes, I made all of them.
play_circle
pause_circle
What did you use?
play_circle
pause_circle
I used wood. I always use wood.
play_circle
pause_circle
Why?
play_circle
pause_circle
Because I can cut it easily. Look at this puppet. First I made a round head. Next I cut long, thin pieces. They were the arms and legs. Then I cut a fatter, wider piece. That was the body.
play_circle
pause_circle
What did you next?
play_circle
pause_circle
I made the clothes. Then I fixed the strings onto the puppet.
play_circle
pause_circle
What is this puppet?
