    My 11 year old son bought this. He absolutely loves it. It’s great quality, and we’ve enjoyed some puppet shows.

    This is a lot of fun around the pretend kitchen. He is made of a durable cloth with attached wooden dowel to control one of the hands. I have average size adult hands and it fits just fine, but may be unable to fit a larger mans hand. My kids can control it easily. It will stand up to some rough play. As with any wooden dowel, treat it with some caution or it will snap but I have not had this happen. Overall fun choice.

    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.

    My son saw this puppet and he wanted one. It was delivered fast and no issues. It is a good size too. Also, the wooden handle comes off in case you have a naughty child. I think it is cute for pretend play so I would recommend this puppet.

    This is super cute however the stick came with a big crack in it. I haven’t reached out to amazon yet since we just got this.

    Wow what fun! Another puppet I bought for the Melissa and Doug Puppet Theater - My grandsons other grandparents are Italian (as I am also) but they speak Italian and were born in Italy. They had so much fun with Al Dente LOL they were moving his mouth and speaking Italian to all the other puppets. So fun and so cute. As I said all these puppets are so well made, well worth the price and I recommend it hightly.

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.
