Our puppet making workshops are aimed at a range of audiences including schools, museums, community organizations, festivals,  and other events. We cater for participants of all ages and abilities.

Our puppet making workshops are designed to be in line with the Curriculum for Excellence. The workshops give pupils the opportunity to engage in cross curricular activities whilst having fun!

School Workshops

School workshops generally last for approximately 2 hours, before or after lunch. After school-club sessions are also available.

Themes on offer include:

• Romans
• Egyptians
• Jacobites
• Vikings
• WWII
• Knights
• Victorians
• Free choice

 plus many, many more.

Please email to discuss your requirements.

For non school based workshops, participants are free to make any sort of character they wish, again during a two hour session.

Cost 

Please email Noona for a full quote, but as an idea, a one off 2 hour session will cost £80 fully inclusive of all materials and travel within the Glasgow/Stirling region. 

A full day will cost £140, again fully inclusive, and further discounts are available for multiple bookings...eg if you wish to book a workshop for every class in your school as part of the curriculum for excellence. Many schools choose this option, so have a wee look through the Gallery section to see the fantastic puppets the kids have created. 

Puppet -Stew can also offer weekly sessions which culminate in the pupils putting on their own show. Please email for more details.

Benefits of a Puppet Workshop

Puppets allow children to learn while having fun. I aim to give each child the opportunity for positive self expression. Puppet workshops offer a useful means of gathering and sharing knowledge on a given theme or topic. Participation in a puppet workshop allows children to learn something new and gain a sense of achievement.
