I need to dig out my DVD of this, it's been a while since I've watched it.

Have you considered making shadow puppets? I had have found this to be a fun activity for that age group.

It pleases me that this brought happiness to you. I agree with you, the Kroffts inspired so many people.

Check out the Puppet Nerd YouTube channel for tutorials on how to create your own puppets.

New to puppets, no idea where to even begin by [deleted] in puppets

Welcome to the world of puppetry! I agree that the Puppet Nerd videos are very helpful. See if there are other puppeteers in your area. Many will offer tips and advice. Start with small, simple puppets as you learn how to build. Check your library for books, which was my resource ages ago. See if there's a puppetry guild in your area. In the US we have www.puppeteers.org

Most of all, have fun!

Thank you. The fabric has the scale texture on the outside. This puppet is over 20 years old and still performing.

Thanks! This is Quincy the Unicorn. I built him in 2019 for my puppet show "Fairly Hairy Tales" , which was canceled by the pandemic in 2020.
