Parents are finding it harder than ever to entertain their kids as another snow storm sweeps the nation this winter season. Yes, there’s of course the endless amounts of video games, movies and virtual online worlds; however, whatever happened to some good ‘ole fun? Maybe board games are too “old-fashioned” for your kids, but what about getting a little creative with puppet theater? Puppets allow your children to be interactive and take on various theatrical roles, such as actor, director or even playwright. Alex Toys manufacturers several character puppets for your kids to bring to life. You can also buy fairly inexpensive puppet theaters for just $25 (like the one above) at Arsa Toys. As the bad weather continues, think about getting your kids off the couch, and help them get creative with puppets.
