Dear Friends,
For many, summertime brings freedom from homework and hectic weekday schedules. It opens the possibility for adventure and discovery, whether exploring the local museum and bookstore or touring the globe. Even so, keeping kids engaged and active during out-of-school months can be challenging, because, let’s face it, kids get bored! Puppets are high play value toys that are different and new every time you pick one up. With no instructions for use, kids and adults can be inspired to be naturally creative.
This summer travel the world of your imagination with fourteen new puppet designs. Marvelously life-sized, the impressive Three-Toed Sloth has amazingly realistic fur and magnet closures in hands and feet to attach for hanging out and lazing around. The wonderful Wombat is a curiously cute animal from Australia that resembles a short stocky bear. The Hooting Owl is a Great Gray species with movable beak and wings. Hear its sound with a gentle squeeze to the back body. Sitting Terrier begs for attention, ready to learn new tricks. More whimsical than realistic, Small Lamb and Small Cottontail Rabbit are delightful story time friends. Emerging from its shell, Dinosaur Egg puppet will captivate your attention and Chipmunk in Watermelon will help you savor every last bit of summer. Take puppet pals for on-the-go fun with new finger styles of Mini Polar Bear, Mini Cottontail Rabbit, Mini Ray, and Mini Harbor Seal. Ready for a road trip, Mini Chipmunk with Acorn comes with his own snack. Finally, fly into fall with Little Brown Bat, the true species name, not to be confused with our Little® Puppet collection.
Come see us at the following shows to learn puppeteering techniques that will draw customers to your store. Like and engage with us on social media for even more fun. Happy Summer and hope to see you soon!
