Hello,
I carve all of my puppets' heads out of blocks of foam; are they going to last longer, or shorter than foam that was cut in thin sheets and glued?

That's a good one. I modified that one a lot, you can make some pretty sick puppets from there. Also, the "Bowl of a Thousand Faces" is good to modify because there are endless possibilities. Plus, if you use velcro, you should be able to make different bodies that come on and off
