GUND Sesame Street Elmo 11-Inch Plush Hand Puppet for Ages 1+

This is exactly what I needed for my child's collection. The puppet has large eyes that really stand out and captures Elmo's classic look perfectly. It fits most hands comfortably, making it easy for my kid to play with. The plush feels soft and durable, good for regular use. Overall, a fun and well-made toy puppet that brings Elmo to life.

I bought three Sesame Street puppets, Elmo, Cookie Monster and Big Bird to entertain a six month old baby. Baby is too little to actually play with the puppets yet, but the infant loves the adults using them to do puppet shows. These really make the little one just giggle. So far Elmo seems to be the favorite (could be the bright color). From a quality standpoint, these puppets are well made, with sturdy but plush fabrics; and are just the right size to fit on your hand. I've read some isolated reviews that it is difficult to move the mouth on the puppets. It is a slightly stiff, but not really a problem in my opinion, and should loosen up overtime. As a side note, I searched numerous toy stores and the internet for these puppets and could not find them, till I went to the Amazon web site. So happy to finally locate these puppets, as they are new favorite toys the whole family can interact with.

So cute!

This is a cute little puppet. Perfect size for my 9 year old. The material is soft and good quality. My son can play easily with it. Worth the money.

Pros: quality of the material is good and Elmo's expression looks always fun/happy (at least the 1st unit we got in 2009; the 2nd unit we got in 2010 has a thicker neck and the nose is more roundish; the color of the 2nd unit is also more orangish). Cons: It's hard to maneuver hands and mouth at the same time as it is, but I put rolled card paper inside the arms to harden them and make them easier to move. The mouth structure is a hard plastic that is difficult to open/close, but I found that you can use one hand to move the arms and open the upper part of the mouth and another hand to hold the lower part of the mouth. With practice, it works, although it gets me tired after 5 min. The body of the puppet should be stuffed so Elmo would look more realistic when hands are in. It probably won't fit large hands. The 2nd unit we got has a more stuffed head and softer mouth structure plastic. Practice your Elmo voice and have fun!

I got this for a guy I like cuz he wanted to learn elmos impressions and he loved it. Started playing around with it making mean comments like the ones on instagram. Every now and then he sends me videos with his elmo making impressions of him. He enjoys it.

awesome

My grandbaby loves this little Elmo puppet. The only thing I wish is that his mouth would open wider. It seems a little hard to open and close his mouth other than that grandbaby is happy.

superbe marionnette d'elmo ! j'ai des grandes mains, ça passe sans problème. marionnette d'excellente qualité, grande, maniable. lavez là avant de l'utiliser pour éviter la perte de peluches. avec main à l'intérieur, soit vous action nez la bouche soit, avec votre pouce et auriculaire, les bras. ma fille n'en finit plus de rigoler, parfait !

Elmo has been a great hit with our 1 year old, and is getting a good 'workout' everyday. He remains robust and in one piece, despite some strong (loving) hugs.

Absolutely wonderful puppet. Amazing craftsmanship. My son is loving it. Recommend this to every parent. A kid deserves a puppet like this. Oh yes, before time delivery and nice packaging as always.

Mein Kind liebt diese Puppe wenn ich sie animiere. Für ein Kind ist die Bewegung des Mundes der Puppe zu schwerfällig. Dafür hält sie aber selbst bei hoher Beanspruchung.

小学校の授業で使いました。 子どもたちも興味深くエルモの動きを見て、「何を話すんだろう？」と一生懸命に聞いてくれていたと思います。 口の部分がやや硬く、少し動かしにくいので、さらに改良して頂ければと思います。
