The History or the mystery of Finger Puppets?

After hours spent scouring the world's libraries and the vaults of museums my research,alas, has unearthed only vague hints of a legacy of finger puppet fun. And the more I searched the more I realised I might actually be missing the point. After all, its all about the magic of storytelling and that magic is timeless!

In Peru the only evidence is oral; grandmothers recalling their grandmothers weaving scraps of material into characters that with the dance of tiny fingers breathed life into their mythologies helping to keep them strong through the generations of fireside storytelling on dark winter nights.

Does your family have a story or song that you love to tell? See how much fun you can have telling it with finger puppets!
