With a Folkmanis finger puppet, you'll always have a friend nearby. Hedgehogs are nocturnal animals that will roll up into a ball for protection. This little Mini Hedgehog is small enough to ride in your pocket by day. Ideal for use in interactive stage and puppet theater, Folkmanis Puppets are also great for teaching, daycare, school, pretend play, games and parties, or to pair with a book for storytelling. Easy to feed and care for, just add lots of love and snuggly fun. Folkmanis has been encouraging young imaginations to blossom since 1976 with its innovative and engaging specialty puppets, promoting creativity and discovery while winning nearly every industry, child development, and kid-tested award.
