Hand Puppet - Mouse

Item No: 13-B40030
Imagination

Hand puppets are generally really great for many purposes.

1. Hand puppets give your child the opportunity to express themselves artistically in the role play that takes place between the puppet and your child.
2. From a science point of view, you can chat with your child about where each animal lives, which animals are similar to it, its friends and enemies, what it eats, and where it likes to stay and sleep.
3. Many things are much easier to express through pretend play than in real life. When you're playing with hand puppets, worries, challenges, and problems will often bubble up to the surface in a natural and playful way, which makes them much easier to talk about together. Also, it's sometimes easier for your child to understand and learn social skills when they see social situations acted out with hand puppets. Skills like taking turns, showing empathy, and helping one another can be easily explained and shown with hand puppets.
4. And of course, hand puppets are great for supporting your child's language development. You can talk with your child through the puppet, encourage them to repeat words and phrases, and invent new stories together, all of which strengthens their language skills and vocabulary.
And hand puppets have tons of other benefits too…The hand puppet fits children's hands and small adult hands. If you have large hands, it may be too small for you.

Suitable for children aged 0 mos. to 5 yrs.

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

Hand puppets can bring storytelling to life. The reader telling the story does not get hidden away behind a book but gets to be in active contact with the listening children, who become participants instead of passive listeners.

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

This activity develops important skills which help support your child's well-being and ability to learn:
