Hand puppets for the Christmas holidays

The Christmas holidays leave time for a home-made puppet show. A cloth over the table becomes the stage, the family takes their seats, and the child leads the story with their new hand puppet.

A nativity play with hand puppets

The Christmas story can be told with hand puppets too, at kindergarten as well as at home. Animals such as donkeys and sheep are among the hand puppets, finger puppets and Punch and Judy puppets, while the children play Mary, Joseph and the shepherds themselves.

From under the tree to the puppet stage

With Punch and Judy puppets by munabo you can put on a classic puppet show at home; a simple puppet theatre is all you need. Stage hand puppets work over the playboard too.

Soft hand puppets for nursery and playgroup

For children at nursery and playgroup there are soft baby hand puppets from The Puppet Company, including some wintry characters. Often an adult plays first, and before long the child reaches for the puppet.
