This puppet was one of many puppets that I used once each year or so with my first and second grade students. (I enforced the rules that puppets don't fly, and puppets don't fight, so the play time was gentle.)
The floppy eared brown dog has brown and black glass eyes set into the friendly face. It has soft brown faux fur with a fluffy black nose. There is an embroidered mouth.
The puppet can fit both a child's hand and an adult's hand. The body is slightly stuffed giving it dimension and maintaining the body shape but the stuffing doesn't restrict any movement. The dog/wolf has a handspan of about 10 inches and is about 12 inches from the tip of the nose to the end of the tail. The legs can all move since the body is shaped like a glove.
I found it amazing how children immediately focus when using a puppet to communicate a lesson. I also had my students create puppet plays to perform for their parents and the puppets were truly loved. Now that I'm retired and no longer work with kids I am downsizing my teaching treasures so please visit my store to see more items that kids, teachers, and other collectors love. Actually, my store has items from many of my family members' collections so there's a lot to look at. Be sure to click on a category to find more of what you love.
I gladly combine shipping for items purchased on the same day. If you put them in your cart together before paying the system automatically combines weights for shipping. Feel free to contact me if you have any questions.
