GUND Sesame Street Official Cookie Monster Muppet Plush Hand Puppet, Premium Plush Toy for Ages 1 & Up, Blue, 11”

Let me tell you a little about this toy. As far as a resemblance to the actual cookie monster I believe its spot on. The functionality of the puppet is exactely as expected. You can use the hands and the mouth if your skilled enough but the functionality isnt what impressed me. I bought this puppet because a review said that it was quite durable. Well I have used the puppet to play aggressively with my puppy and he has yet to rip it, tear it, or really damage it at all. If you have a toddler or small child you are buying this for then expect for the puppet to remain perfectly in tact throughout your childs entire life. I took it outside and stompped on it just to prove a point to my puppy that fun cant last forever. To my avail no known damage. I have to say overall Im very pleased with my purchase and am thinking about buying all the sesame street characters and putting on a play in my backyard for my neighbors who will never show up. 10/10 would buy again. But ill never have to because this puppet will last forever. Long after humans have left this earth my cookie monster puppet will roam the lands bringing joy to every puppy/and or child he encounters. Update: My puppy has completely destroyed this puppet. Disregard everything I said

Our soon-to-be three granddaughter is an Elmo fan - she has the plush Elmo and the Elmo chair - so sometimes when we are Face-Timing her, Ill put puppet Elmo on the phone and she LOVES it. I cant wait to teach her how to make Elmo talk. Great puppet, great toy. Well Done!

Ok, I purchased this as a gift for someone but I actually contemplated buying one for myself, too! I resisted, but..... Its super cute and I still wouldnt turn this down if it arrived in my mail box with my name on it! Who doesnt love Cookie Monster? Hes always been my favorite character from Sesame Street and this puppet was really a well-made little fuzzy replica of the old monster. His eyes were attached really well and my hand fit nicely in his mouth when I wanted to make him talk. Its a kids toy, but Im sure all ages would enjoy this guy!

Its hard to get digits in the arms and make the mouth work, so I opt for the mouth and a little wiggle gets the arms in motion. Cookie, Cookie, Cookie

Fun!

My nephew loves this puppet! The only complaint I have is, you cant work his mouth and arms at the same time. (you just dont have enough fingers!!! Lol!!!) Hes a great size, though, to throw in a diaper bag and take him everywhere with us. As a parent, I love how much a puppet makes everyone interact. I prefer them to regular stuffed animals!!

I ordered Elmo and Cookie Monster for my grandsons first birthday. Definitely a low tech toy as you talk for it and operate it - allows for some creativity. The only problem is making the mouth move and operating the hands at the same time with one hand. William absolutely loved them - they are much larger than I expected and very soft and cuddly. He loves Sesame Street and wanted to give them many hugs and kisses. I uploaded a picture so you can see how big and cuddly Elmo is.

Super cute little puppet. My kid loves it. I initially bought it to incorporate it when teaching or introducing a new subject., however, its basically involved in all aspects of play. Definitely keeps the attention from swaying back to something like the iPad. Its pretty durable as well. I ve washed it twice in the washer machine.

Looks like Elmo with a thick neck. However, the neck room is necessary to get your hand through. Very soft and durable. Also, if you have large enough hands and have finger dexterity, you can move the mouth and arms simultaneously. Solid buy.

I thought it would be bigger but it is not, it covers my hand but it does not go pass my wrist.
