Write a great story for the puppets to tell, incorporating your lessons. Make the puppet movements highly animated, and use many different voices with a lot of different inflections. Kids love puppets. If you make your own puppets, exaggerate their features, and make glittery, colorful clothes for them. Spend time practicing with the puppets and the story to get the best effects.

I would make several puppets and let the kids have one each and give them the situation you are going to teach them about and let them put on a show. See how they would act out different situations. You could put different situations in a hat and let them choose which one they act out. That would give you an idea on how they are dealing with everyday situations, as well as giving them the opportunity to be in a situation where they can solve the "problem" with out the fear of repercussions if the "answer" is wrong.

I have often refered to the "puppet" as a "friend" with a name. You can use it to help read stories to the children or make up questions for it to ask you and you answer the questions or allow the students to try and answer the questions. Make believe that it is a person and have it behave just like one of the students. (Giggle, be shy. etc.) Good luck!

have them sing songs about whatever it is you're trying to teach them, and make sure that the puppets are colorful and fun to look at.
