Crafty Kids produce creative, fun puppets and craft kits for children. Sally Preisig, company principle, says, "As mothers, we were fed up buying very expensive, mass-produced craft kits for our children. Even then, one still had to find half the ingredients to complete them, so we designed the complete package!" Sally has a long pedigree in the world of pupeteering, including the Tweenies, A Muppet Christmas Carol, Bits in Bits and Bobs and Dogsby on Cbeebies' The Shiny Show. Each Crafty Kids kit comes in its own colourful spotted recycled cardboard tub, complete with paints, glue, a brush, and full instructions. There is no knotting involved, as the puppets have specially made treasury tags for the threading. All kits are EN71 passed for 36+ months, ideally aimed at children ages 4+ Winner of the Bronze Practical Pre-school award 2007 for the Horse Puppet Kit, a Highly Commended at the 2008 Gift of the Year Awards in the Eco friendly class for the Dinosaur Puppet Kit, as well as 3 other short listings in the same awards for the Horse and Giraffe Puppet kits too! |
