EARLY YEARS LEARNING SKILLS YOUR CHILD WILL LEARN

Through the Fabula FAMILY of Mummy, Daddy, Brother, Sister, Baby, Grandpa, Grandma, Cat, Dog and Best friend finger puppets, we encourage children to recognise members of their own families. Apart from being able to relate to the toy better, it also encourages a better sense of self for little ones - as well as prepare for an oncoming baby or a new pet

This set of finger puppets is made for both, playing alone as well as group play. So, the Fabula Family of Mummy, Daddy, Brother, Sister, Baby, Grandpa, Grandma, Cat, Dog and Best friend become the perfect companion for anyone who wants to play along. Put together the finger puppets can not just recreate a child's own family, but also recreate any combination or bring any story to life - giving a healthy boost to IMAGINATIVE PLAY!

Through identifying each finger puppet and finding similarities with a family member - our Finger Family Puppets encourage a keen sense of OBSERVATION among little ones, who start off assuming every family is the same, only to learn that each family is different and eventually understands what makes their own family unique.

We are extremely passionate about being an INCLUSIVE brand as well as promoting it early among young children. That is why the characters of the Fabula family who feature liberally across the finger puppets are of mixed cultures and also represent those with disabilities as integral and loving members of the world around us. We have taken special care to also include same sex, adopted and foster families to be able to offer representation to most children  

Our set of finger puppets go beyond the immediate family to also include grand parents, best friend and pets; who are often very important members of a child's universe. These intend on teaching compassion and love through ASSOCIATION while playing
