PHEONIX FIVE Finger Puppets with Stand

The Phoenix Five Felt Character Set with wooden stand offers a playful and engaging way to support storytelling, communication, emotional awareness and imaginative play in early learning environments.

Specifically designed to complement the Phoenix Five Book, this finger puppet set brings the story’s cast to life. Each character represents one of the five core needs explored in the book: Safety, Connection, Freedom, Mastery and Fun. Through hands-on storytelling and role play, children can begin to recognise and name what they are feeling, what they need and how to express it in an age-appropriate and emotionally empowering way.

Designed for little hands, each felt character measures approximately 10cmH, making them easy for children to hold and manipulate as they retell the story, create their own adventures and explore character-based play.

Made from Fair Trade wool felt, this set supports language development, social interaction, self-awareness, emotional wellbeing and healthy relationship building through both educator-led experiences and child-initiated play.

Care Instructions: Wool naturally repels water. Clean spills promptly to prevent absorption. Gently dab with a damp cloth, and repeat until clean, then allow to air dry thoroughly.
