Abstract

This study explores the use of hand puppets and kinetic drama as pedagogical tools in physical education, with the aim of fostering the development of children's motor, social, and emotional skills. Drawing on a review of existing literature, the research investigates the psychological and educational mechanisms underpinning these approaches and examines their application within primary school curricula. The theoretical framework includes principles from psychomotor psychology, symbolic learning theory, and interactive teaching methodologies. The findings underscore the significance of integrating these innovative tools into physical education programs to promote active and holistic learning experiences.
