How to Order

The sheep puppet is mild-mannered, as a sheep ought to be. Its floppy ears frame a peaceful tan face. Rose-colored linings in the ears and mouth brighten things up a bit. The stubby tail is just long enough to wag.

With an interest in wool, I know that sheep come in many colors. The Shetland breed alone can produce 11 main shades. Please contact me if you’d like your sheep puppet in a different color.

Details of Sheep Puppet

The sheep puppet is made from a durable acrylic yarn that I’ve used for years. Even the roughest child would have a hard time damaging it. Just send your sheep through the wash now and then to keep it looking great.

This animal puppet can be shared with confidence, since I sew all features on by hand. I will not use glue because I don't want a child pulling the ears off! It fits like an oversized mitten, and can be handled easily even by toddlers.

Uses for Sheep Puppet

Hand puppets provide an effective means of communicating with young children. They also travel well, and give hours of fun and imaginative play.

A sheep puppet can cuddle a baby, portray a toddler’s favorite character, or light-heartedly scold an older child. No assembly required: just pick it up and the fun begins!

Gift Ideas for Sheep Puppet

Children will love getting their sheep puppet for Christmas or a birthday. Don’t forget that many adults collect items related to sheep. Do you know any knitters? Get a sheep puppet to go along with their sheep jewelry and sheep note cards!

Take a look at my other puppets (cow, horse, and pig), and consider buying two or more. Hand puppets make a great donation to a nursery or preschool. If you want a single gift for multiple siblings, a set of animal puppets could be perfect. How to Order
