I'm planning more finger puppet sets; Want to give some input?

What a list, Cutiepie! These all sound wonderful! I especially love the idea of the Family set. Could be so versatile. Can't wait to see what you come up with.

Nativity would be where I think you should start! Very timely and I could make hundreds and find a home for everyone! Please start with a Nativity Set of fingerpuppets!

My older kids (teen and 20's) like ninjas vs pirates. I am sure many would not think
appropriate for little kids. I saw some cute Halloween finger puppets somewhere, so
what about Pilgrims and turkeys ? Christmas trees and reindeer and elves. Just
a thought. Thanks

How about making a family, a father, mother, brothers, sisters, grandmother etc.

Wow, these are cute. Any children's story that could be told with them would be adorable.. I like the idea of a Christmas set too like spowers said, tell the story of Rudolph or Frosty (do a sing-a-long show). Great ideas you have, Cutie Pie!

You do not have to infringe upon Disney; however you could create characters from "The Little Mermaid", "Cinderella" and other stories which kids are familiar but Disney stole from other authors and just aninimated the stories and added things to create more drama and special affects. So if you created your own intrepration of what you believe these characters represent then it is not an infringement, these authors have been gone now for centuries.

Then of course I would love to have some Bible stories for the kids during church.
Maybe the Nativity, you could do Noah's arc with two animals per finger, Moses in the basket, with those you might want to include the story rewritten on a child's level.

If you google "finger puppets" you can see what others have done

The other thing is you might want to take a poll to find out if people would rather have the finger puppet that goes around your finger or the finger puppets with two holes for you to place your fingers (your fingers become the legs). Of just create one of each and see which sells.

I would love some finger puppets that have each of the Military on them. My grandson would really like those. You know like an army, navy, coast guard, Marine (for Angi), air force both male and female. I have some from another site but they will take a long time to stitch. Would be gr8t to have some that are quicker to sew. HUGZ
