Get ready for Flashlight Shadow Puppet Theater

Getting ready

1. Find a blank, light-colored wall and clear toys, cords, and clutter from the floor between it and where the flashlight will be.
2. Check that the 1 flashlight turns on and shines brightly.
3. Lay out a few sheets of paper, a few strips of painter's tape, and 1 pair of scissors on a table, plus three straws if you have them.
4. Keep the scissors on the grown-up's side of the table for younger kids, and plan to do their cutting yourself.
