Hand Puppet 30 cm - King

His Royal Highness — who may or may not delight in giving grand speeches.

This hand puppet fits both children’s and adults’ hands.

The activity is wonderful for your child's well-being and ability to learn:

• Gives your child lots of opportunities to unleash their imagination.
• Ideal for role play, where children practise finding their own place in the game and taking turns to lead. This benefits your child's social skills.
• Strengthen your child's language through play.

Suitable for children aged 0 mos. to 5 yrs.

Play with hand puppets lets your child practise understanding and telling a story with a beginning and an end. This is a very important skill which can be strengthened 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.

When children are learning to understand stories, physical props are a great help. A hand puppet allows your child experiment with telling stories. In addition, they're a really nice way to bring a fairy tale or story to life. The storyteller is not hidden away behind a book but gets to be in active contact with the little listeners, who get to join in the story instead of being passive.

Hand puppets are great to use together at home and in nurseries and kindergartens – or for people with special needs or dementia.
