But when my youngest came home saying he had to make a paper bag puppet of a historical figure-I was flummoxed.
And then I decided to go wild and be creative. I cut up twine for hair, I cut up an old lace curtain for a jabot, and I cut up a pair of glasses that came complete with a humongous fake nose (sadly, the nose has been lost for a while or I would have used it too).
And I tried to teach my son about Benjamin Franklin...but hey, the puppet looks pretty cool!

Too funny! Ben is looking very snazzy! I love the jabot! This makes me miss 2nd grade art time...
I am SERIOUSLY impressed. :)
I had so much making this thing, Stephanie, it is insane!
Thank you, Gillian. The younger son and I had a blast doing it. I love this type of homework. The eldest and I just did a poster of Frankenstein for his reading assignment (okay, he did all of the artwork off of my suggestions) and it was amazing.
