Folkmanis makes this one in brown plush with exceptionally realistic details. Toddlers, preschoolers and older kids all take to it, which makes it a solid pick for home or classroom.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eHow the puppet moves\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSlip your hand inside and your fingers take over the front paws and the tail. Spread the paws to show the squirrel mid-glide, curl them in to make it nibble, or flick the tail to show it is startled. One person can run a full scene with a single hand, leaving the other free for a book or a second puppet. Kids pick up the moves within minutes, since the paws sit where fingers naturally fall.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe detailing is realistic enough for a nature lesson and soft enough for a bedtime story. The design has picked up awards. Toddlers and older children can pick up the puppet and start a scene right away, since there is nothing to learn but where the fingers go. At 15 inches long it fills a hand without tiring a child's arm.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFolkmanis plush hand puppet, flying squirrel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eColor: brown\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMeasures 15 x 6 x 2 inches (L x W x H)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHand operates the front paws and tail\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSold as 1 puppet\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eCare and use\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSpot clean the plush with a damp cloth and let it air dry. Folkmanis builds these for years of play, and the fabric holds up to daily handling at daycare, preschool and puppet theater.

Pair it with a picture book about forest animals and you have a ready-made lesson on what happens in the woods after dark.\u003c\/p\u003e\n","brand":"DS-AMZ","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50654292574448,"sku":"AMZ-B000TZDWAQ","price":61.73,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0434\/7985\/9361\/files\/714rP7QBlbL._AC_SL1500.jpg?v=1792809369","url":"https:\/\/www.bigfrenchies.com\/products\/folkmanis-flying-squirrel-hand-puppet-brown-1-ea-fun-b000tzdwaq","provider":"BIG FRENCHIES","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
