Lesson No. I Finger Puppet
Code A3EL-IVa Identifies different styles of puppets made in
the Philippines
Think About This
Puppets are effective means of educational entertainment.
In the Philippines, Puppetry started since the time of Dr. Jose
Rizal, our national hero, when he staged the play entitled
“CARILLO” or shadow puppetry. He used a carton and a stick
and he placed this at the back of a white cloth. Then he used a
candle light at the back of the puppets.
Angono, is known to have the giant puppets . These are
made of Paper Mache and bamboo sticks. They used this to
celebrate the feast of St. Clementine every last Sunday of
November.
Children are well amazed by the magic behind the puppetry
art.
