Puppetry is an art form focused on puppets and puppeteers. A puppeteer is the one who gives life to the puppet. This art form has been present in everyday lives of people in addition to being a part of the cultural tradition of almost all nations. It is involved in many areas of everyday life, especially for children. Being that children react very well to the puppets, it would be best to integrate them when educating young learners. The usage of a puppet in primary education enhances the quality of the classroom experience, helps create a positive atmosphere in the classroom and ensures a positive impact on social and emotional development of young learners by helping them develop their creativity and motor skills. In order for teachers to be ready for kind of work with young learners, they need to be acquainted with the process of making a puppet and to be trained in how they can be used in education. The aim of this research is to determine if teachers use puppets when working with young learners and what are their thoughts on the impact that puppets can have on the development of children and the quality of the learning process. This type of research is quantitative and descriptive. The research was conducted by questioning 120 participants who were primary school teachers and the method used was a questionnaire. The results show that most of the participants use puppets in the classroom. They also showed that the teachers are aware that puppets help in creating a positive atmosphere in the classroom and that they influence better communication. Additionally, they agreed that the puppet is a valuable educational and didactic tool which can influence social and emotional development, creative development and the development of motor skills. It is important to highlight that the results show that teachers find that the puppets are not represented as much as they should be in primary education and that the future generations of teachers need to be better educated in how they can use puppets in their classrooms. From all of the above, it can be concluded that most of the teachers are aware of the benefits of using puppets in the classroom, but they still do not use it as much as they could because they need to be more educated in how they can be used.
