Puppets are of great importance for child development during preschool education.
Since children perceive the puppet as a game, their participation in the teaching process is much more effective.
The child acquires the ability to use spoken language fluently and understandably and to express himself/herself comfortably.
It helps develop the child's motor skills through hand-eye concentration.
It gives children the ability to express their feelings and thoughts.
Establishes a relationship between facial expressions and emotions such as happiness, sadness, fear, surprise and anger.
It strengthens children's social relationships such as working with a group, listening, establishing relationships with other people, sharing and taking responsibility.
While children play with the puppet character, they try to think and feel like that character by immersing themselves in that character's identity.
This strengthens the empathy skill.
Puppets entertain children, cheer them up, make them have a good time and sometimes make them emotional and think.
Thanks to puppets, we can teach children how to share, use body language and voice.
By imitating events and behaviors, children actually complete a step of learning.
Children can look at events from different perspectives and thus develop multi-dimensional thinking skills.
