Single-entry puppets are great for pretend play and also for use in behind the stage performances. Their larger size makes them nice for use with larger audiences; however, they can be a somewhat difficult for the smaller puppeteer and even petite adults to control. If you are purchasing your puppets for competion, the heads on these do have the flip-top head that is often counted against your performance. A nice puppet with cute features. If you are planning to travel with these puppets, you'll have to be careful not to pack them too tight as the heads can be crushed and damaged.
