    I purchased for my 8 y/o grandson. He says the mouth is a little small for his hand, but over all likes it a lot.

    We have a previous version of this chef puppet that has been used to death so we ordered a new one to replace it. I was expecting the same puppet but its obviously a newer version and its terrible. The puppets face is miss-sharpen, the hands look really weird, the mustache is on the inside of the mouth and its really uncomfortable to use. The eyes and nose protrude into the inside of the puppet and really hurt your fingers when you try to work the mouth. Definitely a big step down in quality. Bring back the old version!

    Very good buy. My son loves him, and also the stick helps a lot. Affordable and seems to be made of strong material. Just wish the clothing was detachable.

    I bought this for my son. He takes it to school everyday to play with his other friends who also have other Melissa and Doug puppets. They all love them! Its a quality made item; as are all Melissa and Doug products. Buy it, you wont be disappointed!

    My grandson has had a ball with this puppet. He loves playing with it. He talks to his stuffed animals with the puppet and entertains himself for a good while. Good buy.

    We ordered this puppet for my children, as my husband has always wanted to have a nice collection of puppets. The Melissa & Doug puppets are really impressive- they are well made for a decent price. The chef in particular is a favorite. We just love the way he looks. It is easy to make the puppet have hilarious expressions and there is a stick attached to one arm, so you can move one hand, which is fun for my kids. They seem pretty durable, but we dont leave that up to chance, as we store them up and away from my kids and only bring them out every few months as a special treat. I think that treating them this way, they will last for years to come.

What"s for dinner? Just ask Chef Alfredo "Al" Dente for the special of the day! Use one hand to manipulate the puppet"s mouth and facial expressions while gesturing with the removable wooden rod with the other. Detachable rod is suitable for lefties or righties! It is made from material that"s both durable and incredibly soft to the touch. This quality construction and a strong interior structure for the head mean it will hold up to years of creative puppet play. The classic white chef"s hat is made to stay put on the expressive, mustachioed Al Dente, while the detailed white chef"s coat and red bandanna have self-stick tabs and are removable and machine-washable. Puppet play inspires countless creative stories and amazing imaginary adventures. It"s terrific for self-confidence and also an invaluable booster for motor skills, hand-eye coordination, communication skills, parent-child bonding, and so much more! A removable hand rod attaches to either hand of the puppet, making it simple for both left-handed and right-handed puppeteers to practice and develop their story-telling skills. This versatile classic puppet is appropriate for puppeteers of varying skill levels and helps develop narrative and creative thinking. The Chef Puppet with Detachable Wooden Rod makes a great gift for kids ages 3 and up. Add the Melissa & Doug Deluxe Puppet Theater to round out the hands-on, screen-free puppet play experience.
