Description
This set of five dinosaur head finger puppets brings a whole prehistoric cast to one hand. Each head is moulded in plastic and painted in detail: a long-snouted orange and brown hunter with rows of white teeth, a grey-green head with a pink tongue, an orange head with a sweeping red crest, a dark brown and olive head with bright yellow eyes, and a blue-grey head with three horns and a frilled crest spotted in green. The puppets measure about 7cm tall, 7.4cm long and 4.8cm wide, so each sits neatly over a fingertip and stands upright on its own when play is over.
They suit a playroom shelf, a toy box or a coat pocket for a long car journey, ready to come out for a puppet show, a bedtime story or a roaring contest across the kitchen table. Five heads mean five characters, so one hand can stage a whole scene, or the set can be shared out so everyone at the table takes a dinosaur. Lined up in a row between games, they also make a cheerful little display on a bookcase or windowsill.
Each finger hole is approximately 1.5cm across, so a puppet slips on and off easily and sits neatly on a fingertip while it roars. The plastic holds every sculpted scale, ridge and tooth, and the whole set is light enough to wear without noticing. To keep the paintwork looking its best, wipe each head with a damp cloth and let it dry before it goes back in the toy box. We like keeping all five together in a small pouch or tub so none goes missing between stories, and they make an easy little gift for any dinosaur fan.
