Folkmanis makes puppets for all occasions! We LOVE the Standing White Rabbit. Wiggle your nose like a bunny! His fur is splendidly soft. The arms and mouth are easily maneuverable to give him real personality as he hops with joy into your life! As we are still celebrating Boston College's National Championship in Hockey as of last night, it appears they pulled a rabbit out of a hat and we could not be more pleased! We recommend they pull THIS rabbit out:

Absolutely perfect for spring, this rabbit is a classic. We think we may have seen him passing by in Central Park...and he did beat the turtle for sure! Whom You Know saw the wonderful designs of Folkmanis at the 2010 American International Toy Fair.

Puppets have the wholehearted approval of kids, parents, teachers, and child development experts, and these puppets in particular are recommended by Whom You Know. Kids (and adults too sometimes) love to play and snuggle with puppets; parents love to interact with their children, and see them have endless amounts of fun and comfort with puppets; and child development experts and teachers rave about the educational and social benefits of puppets.

FOLKMANIS – the most award-winning specialty puppet maker in the world – has been creating astonishing puppets for more than 30 years. This spring the company adds 21 introductions to its core, Stage, and mini (finger) puppet lines. These new puppets debut this spring at toy and gift shows, including the American International Toy Fair February 14-17, 2010 in Manhattan at the Folkmanis booth #1833 at Jacob K. Javits Convention Center.

“Folkmanis puppets come to life with superior innovative and creative designs that children and adults love,” says Judy Folkmanis, company co-founder and creative director. “Puppets are wonderful toys that inspire the imaginations of all, and are cherished playthings that last a lifetime.”

Folkmanis believes imagination is the key to a healthy childhood, encouraging play and discovery to develop the skills necessary in life. The company has been making the most innovative and engaging specialty puppets in the world since 1976, delighting imaginations and winning nearly every industry, child development, and kid-tested award – many repeatedly. Folkmanis® Puppets are seen often in film and have recently appeared on television in: “The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson”, Cartoon Network's "Robot Chicken" as well as CBS’ "The Young and the Restless", "NCIS," and Comedy Central's "The Colbert Report." Most Folkmanis® Puppets are recommended for ages 3 and up and are available at specialty toy and gift stores nationwide and in more than 15 countries around the world.

"As you know from my past features, Peachy Deegan and I were in the same class at Boston College prior to either of us becoming entrepreneurs. When we played together on the BC Alumni softball team in Central Park years ago, she mentioned she could not find a great dentist in Manhattan and could often be found networking on her phone in the outfield hiding from the ball. She was my second patient ever in 2006 when I opened my dental practice; I was one of the first sponsors on Whom You Know and the first Mover and Shaker featured in 2009 and have worked with her continuously since. She's even talked her friends that are doctors into being my patients, and they subsequently send their hospital colleagues. I don't know anyone that is as great of a networker and writer as Peachy, nevermind that she is upstanding and always good for her word. Cosmopolitan Dental is so happy to be in the company of the caliber of major brands she works with today, and although she will tell you a million ways to get your teeth dirty between Peachy's Picks, Terrific Takeout and Peachy's Pantry, Peachy Deegan will tell you there is only one way to get your teeth clean!"
