ABSTRACT:
The invention provides a finger puppet comprising a finger stall (30) formed of a resilient material and having a generally tubular configuration with a base area (31) extending generally parallel to the axis of the finger stall on the outer surface thereof. A plurality of inter-changeable human or animal facial head parts (33 to 37), each comprising a portion adapted to be secured to said base area by mutually engaging spigot and bore arrangements is also provided whereby each of said head parts is additionally spatially located on said base area by abutment with a portion of an adjacent head part. The arrangement allows the finger stall to be articulated to provide animation of the features.
