This is a great set full of a dozen different animals. Preschool kids hands can fit into these but I tried one and my hand could fit too! It was almost too small for me, but it still worked and was a ball playing with the kids!

I just think these are so adorable. My daughter received a similar set when she was younger that she just adored. They became her babies when we weren't using them to learn our animals or animal sounds. We also played a little pretend with them using them to talk, dance, or sing. It was great having them on my fingers, or hers, because we were able to use more of them at one time instead of one at a time on our hands.

These are really cool because at the same time you are entertaining the child, you are also teaching them about races and how everyone looks different but is the same. You can really throw them off with using a black puppet and giving it n English Accent. Or whatever... but you get the idea. I love to make kids wonder and learn.

We ordered these forthe babies birthday party and since the babies cant eat candy like the big kids, we passed out these hand puppets to the parents for the babies and they were quiet entertained. The puppets were not made cheaply, and it was a great deal. They fit my wife's hand and were easy to maneuver, sometimes the middle finger would have to squeeze into the head cavity from the inside, but otherwise it was a baby hit!
