Little Noodle, star of the Center for Puppetry Art’s original stage production Adventures of Little Noodle, joins their Distance Learning Team as co-host for our program about healthy living, Making Healthy Choices. Little Noodle gets students movin’ and groovin’ through recorded segments that encourage movement, healthy decision making practices, and hands-on puppet building. Students will identify active vs. non-active play and participate in physical activities as they learn about the food pyramid and basic nutrition. Students will make and operate their very own Dazzle Dragonfly rod puppet just like Little Noodle!

About the Center for Puppetry Arts

The Center for Puppetry Arts offers Distance Learning programs for PreK-12. Students are briefly introduced to different styles of puppets from around the world (1st grade and up). Students participate in learning activities about a topic and create a working puppet of their very own to use in the classroom. A comprehensive study guide and materials list is provided for each program. All puppet materials are easy to find and of little, if any, cost. Middle and High School programs are designed to encourage dialogue between the presenter and participating students. Teacher workshops and demos are also available. The Center for Puppetry Arts participates in MAGPI's Preferred Content Provider program, and provides MAGPI members a 15% discount on all of their programs.
