What is a "puppet"?
A puppet is a movable toy or figure that is controlled by hand, strings, or rods. Puppets are often used in performances, where a puppeteer makes them move and speak, creating stories or acting out scenes. They come in many shapes and sizes, with some designed to look like people, animals, or imaginary creatures. Puppets are made from materials like fabric, wood, or plastic and can be used by children and adults for entertainment, education, or creative play. They help develop imagination, storytelling skills, and motor coordination.
