5 people hand puppets to introduce the little ones to this year

We’ll always be passionate here at Puppets By Post about the many wonderful things that puppets can do – like anything else imaginative, they really take you places! That’s certainly something you’ll discover when you buy people hand puppets from our well-stocked online product selection.

Whether you’re looking to purchase these hand puppets as a parent, guardian, teacher or professional puppeteer, these five ‘people’ presently making up our range are ones that the youngsters in your care really ought to meet.

Captain Hansen

There has been many a famous (or infamous) captain down the years. This one won’t try to sell you fish fingers or get involved in all manner of exploits with Tintin, but he’ll be a lot of fun as he tells stories about his adventures on the seas. Whether you or the little ones believe him, though, might be a different matter...

Grandfather

Many of our customers buy people hand puppets from us because of how brilliant they are for teaching toddlers and children about relationships. So if you’re looking to make clear to the youngsters in your care the importance of respecting their elders, we reckon you couldn’t do better than investing in this realistic Grandfather puppet, who even comes with a hat, glasses and walking stick.

Felicia the Fairy

You might think an actual fairy stretches the definition of ‘person’ slightly... well, we don’t! This cute and fun fairy from the highly respected Living Puppets brand can be used by children aged 10 months and above, and is easy to use thanks to the access provided into her arms and the back of her head. Her clothes are completely removable, too.

Little Witch

Whether you save her for Halloween-themed exploits in your school or bring her into the fray all year round to scare the kids (in an entirely healthy and fun way, of course!), this Little Witch more than looks the part, with her authentic black velour dress and hat and green face with a crooked nose. This Folkmanis puppet is perfect for little ones aged 36 months and above.

Ghost

Yes, even a ‘person’ so seemingly non-existent that he can travel through walls (or have we just been watching too much Casper the Friendly Ghost?) can somehow be represented in puppet form! This particular pale critter from our Living Puppets range has a movable mouth and hands, enabling you to give him plenty of ‘spirit’ (sorry).

Remember that when you buy people hand puppets from Puppets By Post, we’ll also throw in free UK mainland delivery, provided that the total outlay for your order comes to more than £10. With so many fine offerings in our online store, you probably won’t struggle to spend such an amount!
