 Health Professionals

Occupational and Physical Therapists

Finally, puppets designed for health professionals working with young patients that have speech and oral-motor challenges.

All of these puppets swallow and come with an attached articulable tongue. Some come with teeth and Wyatt and Douglas Rescue come with all of their articulators - tongue, teeth and lips.

How about a special friend to create an effective and playful approach to therapy. These puppets will lengthen your young patient's concentration level during the therapy sessions.

Use these puppets for articulatory placement, oral-motor exercises, tongue placement, swallowing disorders, chewing disorders and verbal expression.

All of the puppets have a large mouth and the ability to swallow pretend food down the throat. Your hand fits in the back of the puppet to control mouth movement, to swallow and to articulate the tongue.

 

 Wyatt is a lovable full-bodied dog puppet that swallows and comes with all his articulators - tongue, teeth and lips. Finally there is a puppet that lets the children see the proper placement of their articulators. 

Big Red, Wyatt's cousin, also comes with all his articulators.

Strap Douglas Rescue the signing dog around your neck and immediately start signing. The strap is made of puppet fur with a velcro closure to wrap around your neck. This supports him so that your hands are free to sign or do other forms of therapy.

Sit down next to your client or child and he or she will immediately be captivated by this cuddly puppet. He is also great for puppy hugs and he can do anything with his paws that you can do with your hands! For instance, oral-motor exercises or using the Nuk brush. Of course Douglas Rescue swallows and he comes with all his articulators.
