Maddy and the Magic Scarf

Birmingham Children's Theater presents a cardboard theater puppet show right in your living room! They have also included some ideas for follow-up activities with your children. And, we all know how much fun can be had by creating your own puppets with small paper bags and those lone socks. Pop some popcorn and enjoy the show!

Maddy and the Magic Safari
Maddy is drawing one of her favorite magical creatures and she wants to get the stripes just right, but she’s never met a Zebracorn! What’s an adventurer to do? With her faithful and fearful companion, Puffball, Maddy goes on a fantastical field trip and finds Magical Creatures around every corner!
"Maddy and the Magic Safari" | BCT Cardboard Puppet Theatre
 Maddy and Puffball meet many magical creatures on their journey. Some of these creatures are combinations of animals that really exist (examples: a turtle and rhinoceros, a flamingo and a gopher).
What animals or plants can you combine to make a new creature? Draw and describe your new creation.

Where does your magical creature live? Is their habitat a combination too? Draw and describe a habitat for each creature you created. Be sure to tell what makes this habitat perfect for your creature.

Write a story about your creature(s) and its (their) habitat.
