Top Puppets for 2025

Puppets Ireland stands for toys that last, bring families together and encourage learning in a fun and creative way. Puppets are just the perfect example of that ethos: timeless, creative, guaranteed fun ánd last forever!

From cheeky animals that animate any story, to beautifully made characters that help kids find their voice, puppets are versatile and entertaining. Grown-ups love them because they encourage play straight away and story telling. Children love them because there are no rules, just imagination leading the way.
