Puppet Firefighter

This chief of fire rescue stands poised for duty and ready to save the day with his protective hard hat and reflective coat! Kids three and up may use one hand to manipulate the puppet’s mouth and facial expressions while using the other hand to help the firefighter to gesture with the detachable wooden rod (works for both lefties and righties). This puppet encourages imaginative play, creative thinking, empathy, connection, and endless storytelling. It also helps kids develop hand-eye coordination, fine motor skills, verbal skills, and emotional intelligence. You can count on this puppet to come to the rescue in any puppet drama!
