Traveling Puppet Show

Today at school my class did an impromptu traveling puppet show. My friend Noah and I were the ones who got the whole thing started. Mom and Eliana were watching it all through the observation window. My teacher was reading Old MacDonald had a farm to a group of friends during play time. Then Noah and I got some animal puppets and popped up behind them. We had seen some storytellers at school the day before who had used lots of puppets in their stories, so we were being like them. My teacher then started including our puppets in the story and other kids went to get more animals. Pretty soon we had created a really cool puppet show. We decided to go get enough puppets from the animal barn (aka storage room) for everyone in the class and take our show on the road. We visited the other preschool classes entertaining everyone around the building! We even went into the gym and stood on the stage! Each of our friends had an animal sound solo and if someone was too shy, we all helped him out with his part. I'm lucky to have such a fun teacher! We had to mix up our whole routine today, but what a memorable day it was.
