Hand Puppet 24 cm - Lamb

A lovely little lamb ready to join all kinds of stories.  

Perhaps the lamb has a sniffly nose? Or maybe it crosses paths with the Three Billy Goats Gruff.
That might make it a little harder to find its mama again. 

Did you know that when lambs are born, they can actually recognise their mothers by scent? Within just a few hours, they’re able to identify their mother’s unique scent. This helps them find milk, warmth and comfort — giving them a strong start in life. But what happens if the little lamb has a sniffly, stuffy nose?

Here, essential skills are engaged, which are great for your child's well-being and ability to learn new things:

• Encourages your child to let their imagination fly.
• In role play, your child recreates everyday situations through play, imitates us adults, and creates their own universe.
• Benefits your child's development and understanding of language.

Measures 24 cm.
Suitable for ages 0 mos. to 5 yrs.

All over the world and across different cultures, people tell stories – and even with the same themes. It is a very important skill to be able to understand and tell a story with a beginning and an end. This skill can be developed by telling a story again and again and preferably talking about it along the way, asking questions, and adding your own touch to the story.

Hand puppets can bring a fairy tale or story to life. The reader telling the story does not get hidden away behind a book but gets to be in active contact with the little listeners, who can actively participate in the story instead of just listening passively.

Hand puppets are great to use at home with your child and in childcare centres – or for people with special needs, such as dementia.
