![]() ![]() ![]() So I used a big horse puppet most recently, and have also done it with a dinosaur. And do a long pause before the final "Mooooooo." I actually don't use a cow with puppets because I don't have a big enough one. I usually hesitate a bit before "Quack!" Then blurt out the "Oink!" before the kids expect it. "George's mother said 'Bark, George!' And George went.'Meow'." It's amazing how many kids think it's just hilarious to see a big dog puppet go 'meow.' As George continues to make the wrong animal sounds, you can play around with the timing. You don't really need a mother.I just slide into the mother's role as I tell the story, pretty much word for word from the book. The simplest way to tell it is the way I used for a class visit last week. The illustrations are perfect and carry well for storytime, but it also tells great with puppets. Presenters: One (though good with two also)īark George is a long-time librarian's storytime favorite. Props: Long latex glove (optional.and it can be non-latex too) Puppets: Dog, Cat, Duck, Pig, Horse (or another big animal) ![]()
