Super cute and tons of ways to play. My kids, ages 4 & 6, used the iPad to make videos of their stories and it kept them busy for hours on a rainy day! They loved being able to decorate their theater and customize it with the chalk marquee. The puppets themselves are made of a sturdy felt and the bendable lights make it easy to make the shadows. It took less than 10 minutes to set everything up and put it together. Unbox and go!
My only negative is I wish there were more “people” pieces. A lot of accessories are given to create different characters, but you can only ever have two people puppets at once. It’s not practical to switch the parts around during a “show.” It takes too long with all the little brads used to create the people.
Of course, you can attempt to make your own, but if the company offered puppet expansion packs, I’d buy!
Overall, definitely priced right for everything that’s included and it’s fun and educational!

Set up and Decorate Your TheaterStep 1 - Assemble your puppet theater by folding along the card stock panels. Step 2 - Personalize your theater with stickers and rhinestones! Add them anywhere except the frosted window. Step 3 - Write a note and then add the chalkboard marquee to the top of your theater. Tip: Remove the marquee to write on or store. Use a damp cloth to clean the chalkboard. |
Build a Custom PuppetChoose how your want your puppets to look. Tip: Ask an adult or older friend for help with assembly as brad ends can be sharp. Step 1 - Push brads through the felt puppet pieces to make your puppets easily to move and pose. Step 2 - Attach the sticks to your puppets with foam squares, making sure the arms and legs can move freely. |
Hit the Lights- Its ShowtimeThe theater works by casting a shadow of the puppet on the frosted window. Step 1 - Clip lights on the theater, or place them on the table behind the theater. Tip - Make sure the lights are behind the puppets and avoid blocking the light source. Step 2 - Make up your own play! Act out your favorite book, put on a comedy show, or put on some music and let your puppets sing and dance along. |

This is so cute! Easy to set up - my 8 year old did it. Nice, sturdy thick material puppets, not just a flimsy cardboard. The theater itself is cardboard, tho. Comes with two, adjustable lights and decorative stickers, as you can see in the pictures.
I'm disappointed about one thing... There are not enough sticks and foam pieces to build all the puppets. That's kind of strange and the reason for the 4 stars.
