Adult and Children Puppetry

So I set out to find a youtube video that demonstrated the relationship between adult and children's puppetry.  came across this and it is a super cool shadow puppet show that I just had to post but I wasn't sure if it applied to this blog topic. But the more I watched it I considered a few things. It talks about adult issues, things that little kids have no knowledge of but it is a commercial that I'm sure was on tv at some point and kids probably were entertained by the show itself even though they didn't know what it was about.

And then I found another link with shadow puppets that I thought was really cool as well. This one can be enjoyed by both adults and children. It's pretty clear whats going on and the cute characters they make such as the elephant and the giant head thing is funny and puts a smile on your face. But I think to some extent adults would appreciate them even more because they are able to understand just how they make them and how much work goes into the collaboration of bodies.
