The German Report Pt. 1

I had an amazing time in Germany and had been fully prepared to blog all about it while I was there.

For the past several weeks, I have been working on a puppet adaptation of the story “The Gingerbread Man” for preschoolers. It’s a table-top show with rod puppets and object puppets. Some […]
