Hand Puppet - Owl

Wonderful and wise owl that comes to life when you wiggle your fingers.

These sweet hand puppets from Belgian brand Beleduc are made from high-quality fabric, and they wrap snugly around the wrist for a secure fit.

Use the hand puppets when it’s time to talk about fun (or tricky) topics, or when story time calls for a little extra magic to bring the fairy tale to life.

When it’s an animal or a fantasy creature doing the storytelling, it’s even easier for kids to use their imagination and immerse themselves in the story.

Along with finger puppets, hand puppets are also perfect for puppet theatre. Among other things, you can use hand puppets to stimulate and develop your child's language through playful learning - maybe there's a little rabbit who also struggles to say “FFFF” without spit flying.

Machine washable on a delicate cycle.

This activity strengthens essential skills which are great for your child's well-being and ability to learn:

• Encourages your child to let their imagination fly.
• Here, fine motor skills are developed.

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. Telling and understanding a story with a beginning and an end is an important skill to have. 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 make a story or fairy tale come alive. The reader telling the story is not 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 together at home and in childcare centres – or for people with special needs, such as dementia.
