Manatee Puppet
Details
They're peaceful and water-bound and a rare sight. The manatee continues to fascinate marine lovers of all ages, called by their traditional name, sea cows, or the misnomer (though a close relative) dugong. Animate the fins and move its mouth for a delightfully calm storytime.

Why We Love It
Puppets are a great way of introducing imaginative play - and fine motor skills - into storytime, mealtime, any time really. We've tried several lines, but we keep coming back to Folkmanis puppets as the best quality possible, made from substantial and sturdy materials, and with full articulation that allows kids (and adults!) to create realistic movement of head and limbs.
