A few years ago, I made a fabric puppet theater that hangs in the doorway, but Elliott can't reach the window. So it is always the adults who are putting on the show. Where's the fun in that? So I made him this cardboard theater to keep on his table so he can put shows on for us for a change!

I used one of those cardboard presentation boards, measured and cut out the window and covered it with duct tape. Easy peasy! The bonus about using the duct tape is it makes the theater a little bit sturdier for little hands. I also love that it is pretty compact and fits just about anywhere when it's not in use. Perfect for our tiny apartment! We have had a lot of fun with it so far and I am sure we have many-a-puppet show in the future.
