  1. Donald –

    Having taken Barry’s first class Making Foam Rubber Puppets, I knew I had to check this course out too. Barry and Melissa are amazing and this course will not disappoint. Great tips and instruction. Their enthusiasm and tips continue to re-ignite my creativity and joy in making foam based puppets.

    This is my second Curious Mondo course and really like the platform and instruction offered.
