Hand Puppets - Hand ShadowsHow to Create Hand Shadows (Hand Puppets)

What a delightful way to expand on the concept of the Groundhog's shadow - teach children how to make their own shadow characters! These can be made in front of an overhead projector or behind a hanging sheet with a light source.

Discuss what makes a shadow. Have children choose which character to create a shadow of and write a story about that character.
