Puppet Shows can be a very useful teaching aid where children will benefit from the extra dimension a puppet can bring to lessons. It provides a pressure free space that encourages children to learn. The power puppets have is incredible: Puppets help to engage a child's emotions from curiosity through to wonder and joy. Puppets promote imaginative play through which all children learn. Children get more vocal when there is a puppet around. Children that are upset or shy will chat to a puppet that has shown 'interest' in them and tell it things that they may not wish to discuss with an adult. Children will go home and tell their parents what they have learned from the puppets that day - and they will look forward to the next lesson! Puppets teach and persuade! All our stories have either an educational context or a moral outcome and are presented in a fun packed style. The aim of Funnatix is to combine education and fun and to nurture a child's imagination, health and social skills.
