EXPLORING
PUPPETS AS 3-D
CRAFTS
Puppetry is a form of performance that
involves using puppets as characters in
a show or a story. It is also known as the
puppet play.
In the Philippines, puppetry started since the time of Dr.
Jose Rizal, our national hero, when he staged the play
entitled “CARILLO” or shadow puppetry. He used a
carton and a stick and he placed this at the back of a
white cloth. Then he used a candle light at the back of
the puppets. Angono, Rizal is known to have the giant
puppets. These are made of Paper Mache and bamboo
sticks. They used this to celebrate the feast of St.
Clementine every last Sunday of November.
Puppet is an animated artwork used to
represent a character in a play. It is
inanimate object brought to life through the
active manipulation of a person’s hand. It is
a three-dimensional craft. When we say
three- dimensional, it has length, width and
height. The movement of a puppet is done
by a puppeteer.
Puppets differ in form and in materials. They also
differ in the manner of their creation. The different
shapes or colors of the puppet define their unique
character according to the story or tale.
Discarded and recyclable materials can be used to
make puppets. Different colors, shapes, and textures of
the recyclable and discarded materials can create
simple but beautiful puppets. By using recycled
materials, we help protect our environment. There are
various puppets created here in the Philippines.
What are the different types of puppets?
Finger Puppets
Finger puppet is a miniature puppet fitting over and
manipulated or controlled by one or more fingers that occupy
the interior of the puppet. Finger puppets are generally very
simple, consisting of a sheath that the person wearing the
puppet (the puppeteer) inserts either one or two fingers into.
While the movement of the puppets are limited, multiple finger
puppets can be used on each hand, allowing the puppeteer to
control many puppets at one time. Can be made using felt
paper, cardboard or cloth.

Shadow Puppets
Shadow puppets are made of animal skin and sticks.
Puppeteers perform on the back of a white cloth with light
at the back of puppets. These are figures that are placed
between a light and a screen. Moving them creates the
illusion of moving images on the screen.
An experienced puppeteer can make figures appear to
walk, talk, fight and dance. You can use both stick and
string puppets.
Hand Puppets
Hand puppets are made of sock, foam,
brown paper bags and cloth. The
puppeteer’s hand is inserted in the neck,
holding the flap to open the puppet’s mouth.
The movements are limited to the mouth,
neck, arms and hands. Puppeteers kneel
down or stand up when performing.
Answer the following questions:
1. How does your artwork show awareness of the
environment?
2. How do your choices and use of different
materials make your puppet attractive and
interesting?

By reusing materials that can be recycled, we help


protect our environment.
Puppets today are widely considered as
entertainment for children. More and more
people are discovering that puppets have
always held a place in entertainment for all
ages. This time, we will make a hand
puppet out of socks. You, as a puppeteer,
will wear the sock puppet on your hand as
if you are wearing a glove.
5. Bend the cardboard in half and glue it at the
center of the sole part of the sock.
6. Add the eyes made of buttons, beads, or paper
cut outs. Sew in the eyes or attach using glue
7. Add other features to your sock puppet like the
tongue, hair ribbon or necktie to make it unique
and different.
8. Keep your work for a puppet play production.
Rod Puppets
A rod puppet is made out of wood wire and
string and is manipulated with wooden or wire
rods. Rods are used to move the head, arms and
feet of puppets. Rod puppets can sometimes
have a complete working hinged mouth but
many do not. A rod puppet can have a fixed
facial expression. Arms are usually a
requirement as rods are attached to them.
Stick Puppets
Stick puppets are made of
cardboards, sticks and other
recyclable materials. Sticks are used
for movements.

Puppeteers can create a small theater for doing shows
using finger puppets or stick puppets. The puppeteer
holds the puppet with one hand and uses the other hand
to move other puppets involved in the puppet show.
