    Default Hand puppets

    When I went to Surrey's Childminding Network Conference last Saturday one of the workshops was done by Sue Lockey

    She is one of the owners of this company and site and brought some of the fantastic puppets with her and gave wonderful ideas to stimulate the childrens imagination.

    This is the link for the site

    At the end of the Conference we were all lucky enough to receive this puppet as one of our free goodies

    I know what you mean.

    She also had a stall there too and I went over and looked several times but ended up putting the stuff back....to be honest I could have spent an absolute fortune.

    I already have quite a few puppets at home so couldn't really justify the cost.

    Unfortunately....the only puppet I really really wanted and would have paid anything for was a small fluffy white mouse....he was gorgeous......but sadly she didn't have any with her

    Yes I was really pleased too.

    He looks even better out of the box and the idea of the mini beasts around it is fab especially for mini beast topics.

    Thanks Chell.

    But what I liked about the other mouse was the colour....it looked really cute.

    This is the link to it....have you got anything like it?
