    Hand Puppets, why we like them...

    Our hand puppets can tell stories, sing songs, count, spell, encourage…A hand puppet is a friendly companion and a cuddly friend! Playing with hand puppets is great for communication and social skills. Some of them are a bit mad looking and bring loads of fun in the house!

Our Best Sensory Toys...

Irish family-run business since 2004...

I’m Myriam and it’s me
who has collected and arranged this selection of Hand Puppets, Finger
Puppets, Monster Puppets and Animal Puppets

As a Mum and toyshop
owner I believe there is no other toy like puppets. They offer kids so
much fun that appeals to all generations and are so versatile.

Puppets are fun, they
open play and allow children to do, to play, to imagine, to create. You
can see through my podcasts here with play therapists that children love
to talk to puppets, to make a funny voice or role play daily life.

Hand puppets or finger puppets are a great compliment to a book or just an amazing play companion for children.

Our favourite puppet
suppliers are The Puppet Company, Living Puppets and Fiesta Crafts Puppets. hether it’s
a mouth moving puppet or one that makes a squeak sound, puppets
encourage social and imaginative play.
