Time to bring the magic of ancient shadow puppets into the playroom! Kids can invent their own stories and adventures using this all-star cast of kiwiana birds and animals. Comes with 4 different backdrops and over 50 wooden puppets, engraved with te reo maori and english names. 

 

From babies to preteens, shadow puppets can entertain a variety of ages. The toddlers will listen to the story, while preschoolers will participate, and older kids can stage the whole show by themselves. Even babies can be entertained by the high-contrast images and the light play!

 

Your theatre comes with 4 different backdrops - the New Zealand bush, an under ocean world, a mountain tramping adventure, and a river scene.  An all-Kiwi cast of more than 50 puppets are included!  Each puppet has both English and Maori names engraved on it, and a slot to fit the stick holder into, for easy character changes. 

 

Simple to set up: just slot the sides in and choose a backdrop. In a darkened room, a torch or even a phone light is enough for the theatre to come alive. Draw the curtains and let the show begin!
