Customer feedback:

"Jess – I just wanted to say we received the finger puppets, and we LOVE them!! They are soo very cute. I wanted to wear them all day"
S. Schroder

"During the backyard bird count week the children developed a stronger interest in the various tpyes birds they can see each day. 

On our visit to the park some of the children were unsure of what some of the birds looked like. 

The use of the bird puppets placed into the children's play has provided them opportunities to engage with the birds, exploring their names and colours.

The book has further extended upon this and the children have loved recreating their own pictures of the birds they love the most."
