This puppet is a real head-turner! Besides being competent to make his head turn 360 degrees, you may animate this Snowy Owl’s feather-soft wings to give rise to a real flap in your neck of the woods!

Movable wings and rotating head

The snowy owl is found from the north of Greenland to the south shores of Hudson Bay and along the northern perimeters of Alaska and Canada, and also in the tundra areas of Siberia and Scandinavia. The males may be almost completely white, but the females commonly have more broad black markings on their head, wings and body. The chief feed of snowy owls is lemmings, altho they also feed on respective other little animals such as ground squirrels, mice, and rabbits. They are skilled in catching fish, lying in wait on the banks of lakes or rivers to seize one in their claws. Occasionally, birds are caught in the air and eaten. The large, nocturnal eyes are deceptive, as snowy owls commonly hunt by day.

Editorial ReviewPuppets nurture the imagination, inspire creativity, manufacture interactional play, and exaggerate language. This reviewer has found them to be magnificent tools for instructing alien languages–children will comfortably experiment when controlling a puppet, but not when merely talking to a friend. As children mature, they are capable to use puppets in a more sophisticated manner that will aid them last a good long time.

Snowy Owl is well made and true to form with her white and gray spotted fur. The texture of her leather beak and talons gives her an air of authenticity, and her huge glass eyes ringed with thick white fur won’t miss a rodent. A plastic stick inside Snowy Owl’s body lets you rotate her head 360 degrees. With a wingspan of 22 inches, she will play a prominent role on the puppet stage. –Sandy Hirsch

A real hoot!
By A
This owl is ingenious! I’m impressed with most of the Folkmanis puppets, but Snowy’s truly incredible. Hands of all sizes can have hours of creative fun with this beautiful bird – whose head actually rotates 360 degrees! An added bonus is the soft, lifelike plush coat. Not for nocturnal use only!

People of all ages!

People of all ages will love this puppet! My mom got it for me last year, and I absolutely fell in love with it the moment our eyes met. =) Not literally, of course, but the eyes hold another realistic touch to my buddy. Stick your hand right into this cute owl and you can use it to flap his/her wings, as well as use the stick inside to rotate your owl’s head a full 360 degrees! You don’t have to grope around for the stick…it’s right there, in the same convenient place all the time. The beak is made of a fine, durable leather, and the markings and coat are realistic. This owl is not only a puppet, but is very soft and cuddly and can pass for a loved stuffed animal as well. The stick does not make it any less cuddly…you can’t even feel it! The feet and talons have realistic tufts of white fur on them. Overall, I hope you get this new member of the family…something you AND your kids will cherish! (Or maybe you just want to get it for yourself). If you don’t purchase this loving friend, you’ll really be missing out.

Luke’s review
By Sharp Shopper
My mom ordered it for me to go with my Harry Potter costume. It’s good for playing Harry Potter. It is just like Hedwig in the movie (I named mine Hedwig). It is very soft and fun to hug and cuddle. It is a puppet with a short plastic control stick inside which turns the head. You cannot feel the stick when you hug it. The spots on the owl are darker than expected. It is 9 inches tall sitting on it’s own. The wing span is 23 inches. It has perfectly shaped talons and a tail in the back. It has a little bit of velcro at the tip of the wings to hold the wings together at the back or in the front. It comes with directions and description about Snowy Owls. It is super cute!
