Glove Puppets

The biggest range of glove puppets!

Glove puppets are amongst our most expressive puppets, and some of the easiest to use. With all the legs and arms of your little character moving, the power to bring stories to life is literally in your hand! Glove puppets tend to facilitate each finger of the hand where the thumb and pinky operate the legs, and the index and ring fingers operate the arms ... or where each finger of the hand is used to animate finger puppets mounted to a glove.

Glove puppets are ideal for storytelling and roleplay fun with children, both at home and in therapy. Our puppets are commonly used by nurses, psychologists, teachers, and in aged care. Puppets have a way of breaking down barriers, so it's not uncommon for people to feel disarmed by a puppet and willing to communicate.

Remember all the puppets we grew up with? Ozie Ostrich, Fraggle Rock, Tucker Bag, Agro, Sesame Street, ALF, Mr Squiggle, the Muppets, and so many more. Yes, Punch & Judy were hand puppets too, though a bit 'non-pc' now.
