Love 'em or hate 'em!
The Souvenirs of Australia wombat hand puppet has a hole size suitable for both adults and children. The size of the puppet also means that an adult's hand can utilize the thumb and pinky to animate its little arms. Put this all together, and your wombat can rest quietly in your arms, munching roots, and telling cheeky stories.
Wombats are beautiful, quiet creatures that inhabit our forest floor. They live in burrows below the ground and come out at night predominantly. They are prety cute, but they cause the locals a lot of frustration when they dig below fences. They're incredibly strong and almost nothing will stop a determined wombat.
Souvenirs of Australia puppets are so affordable they can be collected in sets for parents, educators and healthcare professionals. Puppetry itself fosters creativity, communication, and empathy in children, making learning enjoyable while enhancing social and emotional skills through imaginative play.
