Australian Characters

The best Australian character puppets!

We've put together our best puppet characters that represent Australian animals. Australia is the native home to a most remarkable array of unusual creatures, many not found anywhere else in the world.

Australian animal character puppets are ideal for story-telling and roleplay fun with children, both at home and in therapy. In particular, many customers from other countries purchase these puppets to take home as souveniers of their travels in our beautiful country. Imagine having to explain what an echidna or platypus is to a small child who's never seen one?!?

Lots of our puppets have removable clothing and can be redressed or remodelled to represent any character you like. Contact us for ideas about which models are best suited for the purpose, and we can guide you on which can be modified.
