A pouch that is more than just storage – and puppets that are more than just toys. The Friends finger puppet pocket is a simple yet magical object: felt pockets handstitched and filled with small, cheerful finger puppet figures that bring immediate storytelling and play to children and adults alike. Handmade in Nepal – every piece handstitched and hand-painted.
How to use the puppets and the pocket
The finger puppets fit onto children's fingers and most adult fingers, and can immediately be used for story scenes, role play, or improvised puppet shows. The Friends pocket pocket is also excellent for storing the puppets – they can be tucked back into their pockets, so nothing is lost and everything stays tidy. Particularly useful in doctors' waiting rooms, on longer journeys, in child-friendly waiting situations, or during everyday playtime.
Why is this object special?
The tradition of handstitching felt objects in Nepal runs deep – the material is light, soft, and the craftsmanship makes every piece unique. The Friends theme gives the puppets easily recognisable characters that feel familiar and relatable to children. As a gift it is also exceptional – unique, personal, and genuinely useful, the kind of thing you cannot find on every street corner.
Handmade felt objects carry a special energy – not only because of their material and form, but because behind them is a human hand and attention, not a factory production line. This finger puppet pocket is exactly that kind of object: the care and joy of making it are tangible, and that can be passed on to the children who will hold it in their hands.
