Halloween is just around the corner and why not celebrate with a little old school shadow puppet theater! You know I love to find unique Etsy items and when I saw these, I knew they were in. Creative, simple, fun and story inducing, these shadow puppets are a blast! In fact, I'd probably end up using them as decoration as well. You know, dump some rice in a bowl and arrange the sticks like a bouquet. Also, this is a nice tie in with my Imagination post. What a fun way to remember what it's like to be a kid again.
It's not all Halloween in the Orange Moon Toy shop. Creators Meredith and Robin have also made some election puppets, dinosaur puppets, fairytale puppets and more!
My favorite part about this Etsy shop? They sell some of their sticks alone, prompting you to get creative and make your own (or replace the ones you broke!). It's only $5 for a set of 10.
Oh, and the puppets themselves (sticks included) are $30-$36 for a set (depending on detail) with some singles selling for $8.
Maybe you can put on a little shadow puppet show for your trick or treaters this year!

I love these!
Yeah, they're so much fun. Nice tie in with my 'imagination' post too.
They really do. I was thinking the same thing, especially when i read about the sticks. I wonder if they are the same as those bundles of wooden skewers you can get at the market. Fun project.

Oh my little one would love these.
Yeah, I had some of my 'mommy blogger' friends in mind when I found these too. I bet the rugrats would love these!
