A Red Panda Puppet!
The Lil Friends Red Panda 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 red panda can rest on your arm and tell stories from the forest.
All Lil Friends puppets are made with recycled plastic fill and feature a recycled paper tag.
Native to the Himalayas and Southern China, the Red Panda is about the size of a domestic cat. They eat lots of bamboo, and spend the day sleeping. Our red panda puppet is great for story-telling, and great as a little travelling companion. Be brave, have a go ... don't let puppets intimidate you. Kids typically react very well to puppets, and we're happy to show you a few tricks.
Lil Friends 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.
