14 Wizard, Magical Merlin, Hand Puppet

He is super cute! Perfect for playing with the kids

This wizard hand puppet is easily one of the best things weve ever ordered for our Little Princess off of Amazon. The funny thing is, she doesnt know who Merlin is, doesnt realize this is a wizard, but thinks its a character from one of her favorite shows. Our Daughter is a huge fan of Ben & Hollys Little Kingdom, and her favorite character is the Wise Old Elf. Since the first time she realized that I can do a great impression of the Wise Old Elf, she would insist that I speak to her in his voice if she happens to address me by that name. This might go on for hours throughout the day, she loves it. So even though I realize this is a Merlin puppet, it has a white beard and similar clothing as the character she loves from the show. When I surprised her with the puppet, I didnt even have to tell her who it was, she immediately thought it was the Wise Old Elf. She was beyond tickled to get it. And theres plenty to love about the puppet. Even if you dont use it as a hand puppet, it works as a really awesome stand-alone plush toy. Its designed well. The material is nice and soft. But it works terrific as a hand puppet. I think what surprised me most about it was that not only could our Daughter get her hand in to work the mouth, but my hands actually fit as well. So she can make him talk, although she prefers that I do it. One great thing about having a Wise Old Elf puppet, is having him talk to our Little Girl when she has a particular chore to do. Or shes not really wanting to eat something, or brush her teeth. When the Wise Old Elf asks her, it becomes a game, and not something that she HAS to do. Another benefit is that whether shes making him talk, or I am, she gets to use her imagination. As parents, I think many of us have moments where we let our kids watch a bit of a particular show, or play a game on a phone or tablet, so we can buy just a little bit of time to do something without distraction. But then, we also dont want our kids plugged in constantly. This puppet gives your child an opportunity to disconnect from the TV, phone, games, tablet for a while, and just use their mind to have fun. Which obviously makes it a terrific gift. Im really happy we ordered this, Im surprised at how inexpensive it is compared to similar (less cool looking) puppets Ive seen on Amazon. I would absolutely recommend it to others. Go ahead and add it to your cart, Im sure your child will love it as much as ours does.

This is a great puppet, well made, easy to manipulate, fits an adult hand. As well, it is well made. I like that the clothing is removable, I with the hat was as well. Boots are also not removable.

This puppet is fabulous! The hair is fluffy and crazy looking, the clothes are made really well, and the mouth has such a large movement that the puppet is very animated when used! My 5 year old renamed his puppet Dumbledore and plays with him constantly. Dumbledore now has a permanent place in his bed at night. The inside of the puppet is a bit tight around the mouth area, so while I can use this as a puppet, my fingers are pretty tight. I have small hands. My son, on the other hand, can easily manipulate and play with this puppet with no problems! Its the perfect size for small hands!

Nephew loved it!

It’s were duriable and nice

This is great for adding some magic to our shows

Good quality.

This plush puppet is amazing. I love him. His details are perfect. The make of the clothes and beard is wonderful. Im a speech therapist and the kids will just be delighted. Very well made in every detail. Soft and sturdy. Hes very expressive and easy to move. Id say this is for older children interested in puppets or adults who teach or want to play with their little ones. Im ordering more from this line. The quality for the price point is really good. Note: A smaller hand is best. My adult son had a bit of a cramp trying it out!

Great puppet! And fast delivery makes it even better!!!
