Hand-felted finger puppets for The Gruffalo's Child, the sequel in which the Gruffalo's daughter goes out into the snow to look for the Big Bad Mouse her father warned her about. Officially licensed, and made by the same cooperative in Nepal that makes the rest of the Tara range.

Why it lasts.

Hand-stitched in 100% wool felt by a women's cooperative in Kathmandu, under official license from Magic Light Pictures. Each character is recognizable at a glance, which is what a story set has to be, and felt takes being pulled on and off small fingers in a way printed card never does.

Who it's for

For the parent
It suits a family that already reads the book, and it turns a bedtime story into something a child performs rather than listens to.
For the educator
It supports retelling and sequencing during a read-aloud, and set beside The Gruffalo puppets it opens up comparing a character with her parent.
For the gift-giver
It makes a good winter gift for a child who already knows the story, and it pairs naturally with a copy of the book.

Ways to play.

Put the puppets on and the child reads the story rather than listening to it, which is the whole difference. Set it beside The Gruffalo Finger Puppets and both books sit on one shelf, and the finger puppet stand keeps a set on display between readings.

Great details

Details

Materials & construction

Each piece is crafted from 100% New Zealand wool felt. The wool is colored with azo-free, non-toxic dyes and verified under OEKO-TEX Standard 100. Every component, including structural threads and dyes, is cleared of over 100 harmful substances. The finished pieces contain no plastic, no batteries, and no synthetic fill.

These pieces are made in Kathmandu, Nepal, by a cooperative of over 350 women artisans, the majority of whom are mothers. Each is shaped through traditional needle-felting and wet-felting, without molds or machines. Tara Treasures is a Fair Trade Certified brand, which audits fair wages and safe working conditions. Your purchase directly supports the economic independence of the women who made it.

Care & storage

Spot clean with a damp cloth and a little mild soap, then let them air dry away from direct heat. Do not machine wash them or put them in a dryer, because wool felt will shrink and lose its shape. Store the set together so no character goes missing. Contains small parts and is not suitable for children under 3 years.
