Jungle Bird Puppet

Toucan Puppet

Here is another superb foam hand puppet. This toucan puppet was crafted entirely out of foam. Extremely light weight and a joy to operate. with a ridiculously large beaks, these jungle birds are beautiful to look at. I did a performance at the San Francisco Zoo using this Toucan hand puppet recently, Toucan was the only animal puppet in the whole place. I don't have a permanent voice for him yet, so I had him mainly complain with a nasal bird sound. Very funny puppet to perform with. The kids go wild about animal puppets. This jungle bird puppet can be used as a stage puppet or as a ventriloquist bird puppet. The eyes and the wings are actual foam cut outs. Rit dyed not airbrushed. So the colours completely permeate the foam. I will Post a video of Toucan making his whining sounds. Thanks for looking puppet world.

Clown Entertainment for Kids Birthday Party

clown shoe foam puppet

Hey! Check out this funny clown shoe puppet. Clown shoes are an
unusual part of the clown costume. The size and color of the shoes add a lot of appeal to clown entertainment at any kids party. This
particular puppet was called the laughing shoe. It's a talking shoe
with bad breath. This funny combination is not easily found at your regular clown supplies store. I have used this puppet for an original story that I wrote titled: "The cricket and the Laughing Shoe". It's a kids story that I am hoping to get published someday. I have also used the clown shoe at many gigs that required a clown for birthday parties. The puppet was constructed of poly foam that was dyed with fabric dye. I now only used it for telling the story of "The cricket and the laughing show". Thanks for visiting.
