Cow Fun Facts
Our pattern of the month is the Cow! Actually all “cows” are female, males are bulls. And females can have horns, not just males. Researchers have found that if you name a cow and treat her as an individual, she will produce almost 500 more pints of milk a year. Cows have favorite friends and become stressed when they are separated.

Monkeys in Books
In our previous blog article we listed a few links to craft projects featuring monkeys that we found around the web. We also had a free download of monkey paper bag puppet pattern.
We are continuing the monkey theme with a list of books that we thought would be interesting and fun to pair with a monkey puppet. We’ve noticed that kids become more engaged during reading when a puppet is used to help bring a book alive.

Our Cart is Working Again!
Finally our shopping cart is working again!

We rushed the best experts to the scene and we are so happy that you can now make purchases. If you have any difficulties please contact us at rose@thetucsonpuppetlady.com.
Ironically, our pattern of the month is the Monkey! The Monkey pattern is on sale until Oct. 31, 2019 for only $2.50!
Technical Difficulties with Website
We apologize for any inconvenience caused during our upgrading our website. At the moment, the only way to purchase our products is through our Etsy store.
Hopefully our store will be back on line soon.
Monkey Fun Facts
Our pattern of the month is the Monkey! Capuchin monkeys are believed to be one of the smartest New World monkey species. They have the ability to use tools, learn new skills and show various signs of self-awareness. Monkeys also have feelings. They have love, fear and compassion. And some harried parents probably feel their kids are more monkey than human at times.
