This plastic children's pull toy has been modified to be used as a "talking" puppet! The mouth opens and closes when a hidden lever in the tail's underside is pushed. Permanent mechanics. I'll sign this - it was fun to build and I'm sure it will be even more fun to use. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=290809984511
I won a turtle puppet like this in a poetry contest on this blog several years ago. I created a "shell" for it and used it to tell the story of the tortoise and hare to young children. I named him "Sparky" because of the bright shell he had. The children love him.
