New York Puppeteer Plays With BookPALS

January 22, 2015

This past week BookPALS were joined by New York Puppeteer, Gwen Dean.

Gwen Dean discussed her own path to becoming a puppteer.

Gwen showcased her hand-made puppets and shared tips and tricks for incorporating puppets in BookPALS read-alouds. Everyone was thrilled to see how easy and fun the puppets were to play with, even Liz Spaulding (SAG Foundation New York Executive Director) was on hand to play.
