  This week, she's having the children in a few grades create paper puppets similar to those I posted in my "Wild Valentine Puppets" in February. The children made a folded paper head for their puppet and then could add features, a body, and more using only cut paper and glue (no drawing). This is the puppet my oldest son came up with: it is a crazed beaver (I don't know what the deal is with kids and crazy beavers--my home school kids made some with the "Big Mouth Critter" earlier this month).
  It frustrates him terribly that his brothers, dad, and I have taken to calling his puppet "Justin Beaver." Hee hee! Sometimes it is just TOO FUN being a parent!
