Summary/Abstract: The article highlights the positive impact of applying puppet therapy methods and tools with children who have attention deficit and hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). It traces the process of working and interacting between the actor-therapist and the child with behavioral difficulties. Emphasis is placed on building mutual trust, using artistic means, storytelling, and creating a stage puppet character with whom the child can identify – all aimed at changing the child’s condition and worldview. The therapy supports the development of confidence, engagement in specific tasks, and the regulation of excessive activity and reduced attention through theatrical techniques.
