Puppet Plays
Three Little Kittens
(Traditional, adapted as a puppet show by Debbie Brightwell Brown. Use three cat-face
and one dog-face stick puppets. Puppets can be hand-drawn or use animal paper plates,
such as Hefty® Zoo Pals, which can be purchased at most grocery stores. Tape plate
puppets to wooden dowels or other handles. Hold the puppets to act out the poem, or let
the children in the audience participate by holding the puppets and acting out the poem as
you recite it.)
Three little kittens standing in a row.
They nod their heads to the children just so.
They run to the left.
They run to the right.
They stand and stretch in the bright sunlight.
Along comes the puppy dog, looking for some fun.
Ruff! Meow! Ruff! Meow!
See those kittens run!
