Folkmanis Baby Sloth Hand Puppet

This puppet will be used in a skit during our Vacation Bible School in 2024. It was just what was needed for this portrayal of a jungle rainforest.

Es una marioneta muy expresiva y realista. El manejo es fácil. El movimiento de cabeza y brazos le da vida suficiente sin necesidad de abrir la boca, algo que es difícil al ser muy pequeña. Tiene una expresión tierna y dulce. Me encanta

Il peluche è di pessima qualità...rilascia una grande quantità di pelo ogni volta che lo si tocca. Essendo una marionetta questo difetto lo rende inutilizzabile.

The media could not be loaded.  This baby sloth puppet is delightful and very realistic. I took the puppet along to the Tropical House of a nearby zoo for a photo shoot and visitors, who were tip-toeing past and whispering quietly, thought I'd found the zoo's elusive resident sloth and were keen to meet it. They were amazed that I appeared to be holding him and asked me all sorts of questions about his movement, digestion, whether or not he bites humans which I answered, as best I could while chuckling quietly to myself and trying to keep up the pretence. Only one person, on spotting the Velcro tabs on his paws, eventually spotted the puppet wasn't actually real.The puppet is very well made from the highest quality materials which replicate the coat of a real sloth. It is easy to bring him to life and there is easy access to all four limbs along with the mouth - although not all at once unless you have a large adult hand able to reach all 5 areas simultaneously. An adult can easily operate the arms and mouth simultaneously but it might be more of a struggle with a small-handed child.With a Velcro tab to each limb, he can be wrapped around tree branches to hang upside-down just like a real sloth and, again, looks quite convincing .Although undeniably expensive, on looking at the puppet and all his various parts and appreciating the work involved in cutting and stitching them so precisely, it is hardly surprising he has a premium price. You are paying for quality and realism. I really couldn't imagine anyone being disappointed by him.

Amazing craftsmanship. Highly reccomend these puppets. My baby loves the sloth puppet. Will definetly buy again from this company. My cat loves it a little too much, attacked it many times already thinking it was the real deal. I have to hide it now when im not using it to prevent it from being eaten by the cat...
