EYFS Five Little Ducks Stick Puppets

EYFS Five Little Ducks Stick Puppets

This Five Little Ducks stick puppet activity allows children to retell the nursery rhyme demonstrating their understanding of the narrative using props to role-play the different characters. They also allow children to be imaginative with their colour choices as well as developing fine motor skills through cutting out and constructing the puppets.
