How much do children know about police officer,  firefighter, construction worker, chef, and well, pirate?  Let's find out. No bad guys will be allowed in your neighborhood when Cyrus 'Cy' Wren is on duty! Want to know what's for dinner? Just ask Chef Alfredo 'Al' Dente for the special of the day! Chief Walter Blaze is always on duty and ready with his protective hard hat and reflective coat to save the day!  He works day or night depending if he is building a nice little house or paving up your sidewalk. You are  always well covered if it's  built by Harry I. Beamer! Last but not the least: Yo ho! Barnacle Bart is not exactly your convention professional type. But he is always ready for treasure hunting and adventures on the high seas!

Making these puppets talk and walk is easy. Use one hand to manipulate the puppet's mouth and facial expressions while gesturing with the removable wooden rod with the other. Detachable rod is suitable for lefties or righties!
