Melissa & Doug Police Officer Puppet (Detachable Wooden Rod for Animated Gestures, Ideal for Left- or Right-Handed Children, 15” H x 5” W x 6.5” L)

The puppet took long to ship, (Maybe it was some kind of problem in the store I had but maybe it will come in the right date at your store, I dont know) but it came in the perfect condition, like it came out fresh from the factory. It has certain features, like the wooden rod that can be removed from the puppet (the rod is used to make the puppets arm move) and also you can remove the puppet's shirt with Velcro (that sticky thing that attach to some kind of hair with tiny hooks that attach to it) but you cannot remove the hat. It's mouth can move by putting your hand inside and move and open your hand to make it move his head and mouth while using your other hand to hold the rod and animate the puppet's hand. I also would like to say that you should by other puppets made from the brand to make a puppet show out of it to entertain your kids and teach them. Excellent product and I suggest it to your kids or yourself to use for many things, like teaching kids, entertain the public, collection, and for skits to share.

I can't wait to give this as a gift! It's the same high-quality puppet as those used at my grandchildren's school, which is how I found out about Melissa and Doug products. The kids raved about them, and made my holiday shopping super easy!
