Product Review

Chubby cheeks, a ruddy complexion and racing stripes greet you when this friendly fellow climbs aboard your hand. When you work his arms, he can hold a nut or tidy his face up after dinner. Use your opposing hand to flick his tail for expressive gesturing.

Movable head and arms

Editorial Review

An ancient Iroquois legend says Chipmunk got the stripes on his back when angry Bear swatted at him, annoyed by his chattering. Sitting perkily on his haunches, this chipmunk puppet does look to be a chatty chap. He's amazingly detailed, from the slim markings over his keen brown eyes to the stripes that run from nose to tail. Crafted of four different types of soft fake fur, he's got ears, nose, and paws of caramel-colored felt. The puppet "pocket" is hidden at the base of his belly; the lifelike little guy sits on his haunches on one of your arms while your other hand works his two forepaws and head. Or he can just perch his diminutive 9 inches on your kid's bed or bookshelf: he's equally cute when he's not busy talking someone's ears off. He's a great addition to a play group, preschool, or kindergarten classroom, although if you've got kids who still nibble on toys from time to time, you'll want to keep an eye on the felt "paws"--they could shred eventually. --Julie Ubben

Walter is an amazing pet to have in my preschool classroom- the children love to teach him things like proper handwashing, shaking hands- and if there is a personal issue, they are sometimes more likely to tell Walter what's going on than me.
He loves to go home with the kids, and taking care of him is teaching the children how to be responsible and caring.
We love Walter.

The Folkmanis chipmunk puppet is one of the smaller ones, making him easy for a child to manipulate. But he fits an adult hand, too. My chipmunk is named Chickory. He's a bit timid. He likes to peek out from the crook of your arm. He likes to go out to the playground at recess and sit in trees, too. We don't have real chipmunks in Houston, but I've seen them in Georgia and in New Jersey, and Chickory looks just like them.
