Making Paper Bag Puppets is In-The-Bag!
Small lunch bags,
a little imagination, and
a rainy Saturday afternoon...
...make for a great puppet making day!
There is a new resurgence in interest in this time tested puppet craft. It may be due to advertising of online ticket merchant Fandango
But, in any case. I have been a fan of making and using paper bag puppets since I was young.
(Yes, they had already invented paper when I was 'young', smarty.)

Puppets on Wikipedia
Paper Bag Puppets Lens
A puppet is an inanimate object or representational figure animated or manipulated by a puppeteer. It is usually (but by no means always) a depiction of a human character, and is used in puppetry, a play or a presentation that is a very ancient form of theatre. The puppet undergoes a process of transformation through being animated, and is normally manipulated by at least one puppeteer.
There are many different varieties of puppets, and they are made of a wide range of materials, depending on their form and intended use. They can be extremely complex or very simple in their construction. They may even be found objects. As Oscar Wilde wrote, "There are many advantages in puppets. They never argue. They have no crude views about art. They have no private lives".
