Wooden Puppet Theater

Description

Play fairy tales together with your children and let your imagination run free with this wooden puppet theater for kids! Discover the magic of live storytelling and perform your favorite fairy tale — or create a completely original one of your own.

• Materials and safety: The puppet theater is made of high-quality beech wood, and the curtain is crafted from dark red velvet. All paints and varnishes used are certified for children’s toys. Every part is carefully sanded. The puppets and scenery are printed on sturdy paper with illustrations by artist Miluše Řehůřková.

• Size and age suitability: Dimensions of the folded theater in centimeters (length × width × height): 37.5 × 27.5 × 10. Suitable for children aged 3 and up.

• Supporting child development: Playing with a puppet theater offers many benefits and helps develop key skills. It combines fun with learning — encouraging creativity and imagination, improving language skills, expanding vocabulary, and helping children structure stories. It also teaches interaction, cooperation, and fine motor skills through handling the puppets.

• Preparation: Cut out the paper puppets and scenery and attach the loop side of the self-adhesive Velcro to the back. To prevent the paper puppets and scenery from creasing when removed from the holders, we recommend breaking in the Velcro before use. This makes it easier to detach the pieces and helps prevent damage. Attach the hook side of the Velcro to the puppet and scenery holders.

• Assembly: The puppet theater is easy to assemble using the included instructions in four simple steps. The individual parts connect using magnets.

• How to use: Prepare the puppets and scenery for the story you want to perform. Attach the puppets to the small or large puppet holders using Velcro, and attach additional scenery to the small or large scenery holders. Insert the main backdrop into the slot in the lid. To change the scenery, simply pull the curtain and swap the pieces. After the performance, everything folds neatly back into the suitcase.

• Record your own puppet show: Show how creative you and your children are! Record your own puppet show and send us the video. With your permission, we will add it to our Gallery of Smiles.

TIP: You can also draw and create your own puppets and scenery.
