Folkmanis Shark Hand Puppet

it is a great looking shark and it was for my daughter as a gift and she loved it she is trying to get an animal puppet for each letter of the alphabet

My son is obsessed with sharks at the moment so I bought a number of different shark puppets. Folkmanis is a well established brand. They used to make a large shark puppet with rubbery teeth that was awesome (can't find it anymore).The materials are of good quality, teeth are covered with vinyl and aren't just cloth. That said, it is small (yes I read dimensions). I ordered some Sunny Toys shark puppets as well because they were so inexpensive and while those have slightly less quality in some areas- cardboard to hold up fins etc, -overall, they are much larger, softer, and more along the lines of what my son would play with. For the money, I would get the Sunny puppets.

Very satisfied.

Excellent quality! Would hold up to years of beating through the hands of many children! Durable! My daughter who loves sharks loved it and we took it to the aquarium. It is also very large!!! Would highly recommend for shark lovers or someone in need of a good quality puppet for a classroom.

My son loves his shark puppet! It's important to note that the hand opening to operate the puppet is quite small -- perfectly suited for a child's hand, but much too small for an adults'. So, if your intention is for your child to operate the puppet, this is a great option; however, if your intention was to operate it for your child, you might want to look at other puppets.

These puppets are just the best. We've started quite a collection and my son loves them. One of the things that makes them so great is that they can work as puppets, but even when no hand or fingers is inside, they still can function as an adorable and realistic stuffed animal (they don't collapse and become lifeless). We play and give them voices and pretend various scenarios, but my son also snuggles with them in bed at night.

I like it all. It was for my son.

You cannot go wrong with Folkmanis puppets. We have amassed a small collection. The shark is probably my favorite out of all of them. He/She is a good combination of realistic and fictional features. It is very soft with fun soft teeth. The hand pocket for the mouth is not too big or small, but I guess that depends on your hand size. My kids love this puppet almost as much as I do.

Shark is a lot smaller than I thought it would be—purchased for grandson’s birrhday

Puppet works great and the teeth are a harder material that helps them stay straight. The body almost looks like it’s swimming if you move your arm back and forth. My students love it!

Lovely children's toy, has been taken everywhere, played with , slept with and still looks like new.Great quality and realistic (without being scary!) . Have a very happy shark fan at home!

It was a gift and he loved it. Stuffed well and soft.

great puppet, kids love it
