The Adventures of a Homemaker: Five and Still Alive

Hi everyone! I'm Autumn, wife to an amazing husband and mother of five. Have you ever looked up the definition of a "mother of five?" There IS no definition, just like my life! Nothing is definite in this house, except my love. I am in charge of five different personalities, with five different needs, five different appetites, five different speeds. Check out our recipes, crafts, workouts, life hacks, successes and failures. You won't get any more "real" than this.

DIY Puppet Theater

On this rainy day, we decided to make a puppet theater! With all these boxes from Amazon we've been getting, we were bound to find at least one suitable enough to make this day just right! This quick and easy solution to a rainy day will keep your kids busy for hours! Our next project? Puppets!!

Puppet Theater

Supplies

cardboard box

box cutter or knife

ruler

pencil

tape

paint

curtains (not shown)

Directions

With a ruler and pencil, draw window to cut.

Cut out window. I couldn't find our box cutter so I had to use a knife. Be careful!

Cut a straight line down the backside and horizontally at the top and bottom. You now have your basic puppet theater.

Now it's time to decorate!!

Drying took the longest..."Is it ready yet? Is it ready yet?? Is it ready yet???"

We will be adding the curtains the next time we make a trip out to Wal-Mart :)
