Puppet play is especially relevant for younger kids. It encourages both fine and gross motor development and coordination, while at the same time inspiring kids to develop narratives as part of their play. They are great imagination enhancers, and go one step beyond traditional plush toys because the child/toy interaction animates the toys in a unique way. Folkmanis has been a leader in this category for years with great designs that are especially expressive and that work with hands of both kids and adults. They are definitely worth the premium you pay for them, and will very likely be part of a child's toy box for many years. http://www.timetoplaymag.com/video/199/folkmanis-puppets/
