Melissa & Doug Chef Puppet

This is an amazing gift, I purchased for my brother and it is one of his favorites, it’s definitely worth the price.

My son is going to love this for Christmas!

Good for the price.

I bought this for my neice who has everything, shes 3 and I guess is a picky eater, so I thought this would be the perfect interactive meduim to help her eat. It came in a box where the arm stick could have been broken if shipping were rough, otherwise the puppet came in a sealed plastic bag, and was made very well, it looked a lot like the puppets on tv, one lady had an embroidery machine and embroidered a name in the jacket Chef (enter name). I thought that is a cute touch. I would buy again and I do recommend, but package should be a little bigger for the wooden arm stick.

For the price, you really cannot beat the quality of this puppet. I bought this to entertain my toddler, which is exactly what it did (after a short period of him being afraid of it). I have rather large hands, and was able to put my hand in the puppet and work it, only having to remove the red scarf to get my hand in there. My wife had no trouble whatsoever getting her hand in and was able to use it as well. So, it will accommodate large hands, but just barely.. and small and average hands should have no trouble at all. The puppet looks just like the picture, and the seams and fabric all appear to be high quality. The red scarf attaches/detaches with Velcro making it simple to take off and put on. The only suggestion I have is, if you child is under 2, do not just pop this puppet on and start talking to him with it. It might scare the heck out of him.. (yes, in my excitement I did exactly that and my poor soon backed away quickly with a frightened look on his face) Instead let your child explore it before you try to use it.

Purchased for my nephew and he absolutely loves it! Chef Juan is now part of the family. Great gift!

Son liked it... stick that goes to the arm broke pretty quick... but I think that was my sons fault, not the products fault....i would buy it again

Very cute puppet. My son wanted it for when they do bake sales at school. He still uses it now that hes a little older to make horror movies lol very good quality and cute

I bought this for my son and he loves it except for the mouth could’ve been wider or made easier to open and shut. When you try to make him talk your arm gets tired because of the way you have to hold it also the mustache could’ve been put up higher so it wasn’t in his mouth. The way it looks when your making it talk or looking at it, it looks like his Mustache is inside his mouth and not on top of his lip where it should be.

I purchased this for 4 year old sons 5th birthday. He loves it very much! He wears it to bed almost every night. It especially likes it when I animate the puppet & talk to him. His eyes light up & he calms down while he stares at the puppet. The puppet is made of very good materials. The clothing Velcros on & off so you can wash the Chefs white coat. Even the little red handkerchief comes off. The hat is strongly sewed on as is the hair & mustache. My son loved him so much I bought him the surgeon as well. I highly recommend these for any child that likes sesame street or the muppets or any type puppets.
