Description
With the Australian Animals Finger Puppets, Book & Stand Set, children can explore the unique wildlife of Australia through storytelling and imaginative play. Featuring four iconic native animals, children can bring their own bushland adventures to life while learning about animals found in their local environment.
With a kangaroo, wombat, platypus and koala to play with, children can create stories inspired by the Australian landscape – from the outback to eucalyptus trees and river banks. The included book provides a starting point for interacting with the puppets, then educators can encourage children to create their own stories.
Each puppet is carefully crafted with recognisable details that make the characters easy for children to identify and engage with during role play. The included wooden stand keeps the puppets neatly stored and together when not in use. Handmade in Nepal from 100% pure wool and coloured with natural biodegradable dyes, this charming set encourages imagination and play.
