Don't usually do reviews but I purchased several puppets and the puppet theatre (doorway hanging model) for my 4 year old granddaughter. She was thrilled and insists on taking at least one puppet with her wherever she goes (the princess is her favorite). The quality of the puppets far exceeded my expectations, especially considering the very reasonable price. The theatre is great fun and although the puppets can be enjoyed without it, it add another element of fun to the shows. Puppets are a great way for kids to act out what they're feeling and to develop their already-active imaginations. I highly recommend these toys to anyone considering them.

This puppet is absolutely adorable and is so well made, it has the quality of a "Sesame Street" puppet. Recommended for 3 yrs+ and even for adults. My grandchildren have had hours of fun pretending with their puppets. I bought three of them and their imaginations have soared making up scenes with their puppets. Even adults can enjoy "pretending" with these puppets

I purchased the Melissa & Doug Princess Puppet for my mother for Christmas. She absolutely loves it! The puppet brought more joy to Christmas than you can even imagine. We had such a blast taking turns and giving her our own personalities. Such a great way to spend time with family and wow does it cause serious stomach pain from all the laughter! The only thing we weren't 100% satisfied with was the very small amount of space for your hand (when controling the mouth). Perhaps these puppets were meant for children though? Other than that she was a huge success so thanks!

These puppets are dollar-for-dollar the most entertaining item you'll ever buy for your kids. Great quality and has years of value.

The Melissa & Doug puppets are well made and have nice finishing touches that make them sophisticated enough for a 5 and up child. My 3 year old granddaughter loves them too, but I think she will enjoy the extra features like the stick for hand movements when she is a little older. A good purchase for fun now and in the future.

I purchased the princess puppet along with 4 other Melissa & Doug Puppets. My grandchildren loved all of them and created their own puppet show which was very imaginative. Great way to get the kids away from the TV, Computer, etc.

THIS IS MY 5TH PUPPET IN THE MELLISSA AND DOUG SERIES.. MY 6 YEAR OLD DAUGHTER AND 8 YEAR OLD SON LOVE THEM! IT USES A LOT OF IMIGINATION AND WE PUT TOGETHER SHOWS FOR THE FAMILY, ALSO WE WORK ON MAKING "TV SHOW" SHORTS, TEACHING THEM DICTION, LEARNING LINES, AND HOW THE PROCESS IS FOR MAKING A TV SHOW, THEN WE VIDEO TAPE IT AND EDIT IT DOWN, THEY REALLY ENJOY THE PROCESS..MY ONLY COMPLAINT IS THAT DURING SHIPPING THEY SHOVED IT INTO A SMALL BOX THAT SMOOSHED IT, BREAKING THE STICK. NO PROBLEM, I HAVE WOOD GLUE LOL!

I bought this and several other Melissa & Doug puppets for my niece (6yrs old) for Christmas. She and her sister loved them, this one especially. They were worth every penny. Several came with prop sticks to assist with holding up the puppets. You can choose to use these or pull them out (they are velcroed in). If I had received puppets like this as a child or any of the others I purchased by M&D (dragon, police man, cheerleader, ballerina, fireman, king) I would have played with my puppet theatre everyday!

I was very disappointed in the Melissa & Doug Princess Puppet. This is the first item received from Amazon I was unhappy with. There is something wrong with the construction of the mouth. My husband and I both tried to move the mouth up and down and it just doesn't work right. To be perfectly blunt, it looks deformed. At first, I felt like returning the Princess Puppet. Instead, I'm giving it to my 5 year old grand daughter, anyway; and she can decide if the puppet is a wicked, step-mother or a not-so-pretty princess. We can't all be beautiful. . .
"No one is perfect."

My daughter really liked the puppet, but we were disappointed that when I opened the package we found the wooden stick that you can use to hold up her arm broken. I didn't want to return it; so I am going to buy a replacement for that part at a craft store.
