Meet Joseph, the 25-inch full-body puppet that's ready to become your new performing partner! This isn't your basic hand puppet - he's got that classic ventriloquist style with an incredibly easy-moving mouth that won't tire your hand out during long performances. He comes with a metal arm control rod (that fishing rod-like wand you've seen professional puppeteers use) that clips to his hand for realistic arm movements. Just slip your hand into the back slot to operate his mouth - open and close for talking, singing, or whatever conversation you two have planned! His body is filled with soft poly-fill material, making him lightweight at about 1 pound but still sturdy enough for regular use. He comes fully dressed in cute removable clothes that fit about an 18-month-old child size. Perfect for beginners learning puppetry or experienced puppeteers looking for a reliable new character. Great for ministry shows, school performances, theater, talent shows, therapy sessions, or just good old-fashioned fun at home. Recommended for ages 5 and up, though younger kids will love watching an adult or older sibling bring Joseph to life. He's waiting to help you create magical moments and entertain audiences of all sizes!
