Gingerbread Man Finger Puppet Set

Step into the world of classic storytelling with the Gingerbread Man Finger Puppet Set! This beautifully handcrafted felt set features the key characters from the beloved 19th-century tale: the Old Man, Old Woman, Gingerbread Man, Pig, Cow, Horse, and the Crafty Fox. Children can recreate the fast-paced chase or invent their own versions of the story, enhancing their creativity and understanding of moral lessons. This set is ideal for building early literacy skills, especially narrative sequencing, character roles, and expressive storytelling. As children act out the story's well-known refrain-œRun, run, as fast as you can...-they also explore themes of trust and consequence.
