If you're trying to break into the puppetry business or want to make kids puppets play toys your new hobby, learning about the types of puppets is a good starting point. Let's start with hand and rod puppets.

Hand puppets have an opening in the bottom (think of a sock) that allows a hand to slip inside and maneuver the puppet body and face. The hand can move the puppet's head by opening its mouth or turning its head. As for the other body parts, the arms and legs are typically sewn into the body and hang loosely. Advanced users can add movement to the arms and legs by attaching strings and rods. You may even find mechanical hand puppets that control body parts via remote.

On the other hand, rod puppets are controlled by strings or rods. In fact, many people think of marionettes when they think of rod puppets. Known for their frequent appearances on stage in curtain theaters, black light theaters or box theaters, many puppet productions use rods as their puppet of choice. The rods or strings are usually operated by puppet masters located above the stage in the rafters.
