Tabletop Wooden Puppet Theatre

The show is about to begin! This beautiful tabletop puppet theatre brings a little timeless magic to any playroom, ready for curtain calls, sold-out shows, and stories dreamed up on the spot. Draw back the curtains, ring up a ticket at the booth, chalk today's showtime on the board, and let the performance unfold. Turn it around and the theatre transforms into a dreamy night-time star scene, setting the stage for a whole different kind of story.

It's a wonderful stage for finger puppets and small toys of all kinds — and here's a little secret for Maileg families: this puppet theatre works beautifully with Maileg mice. It's become a real favourite among Maileg collectors looking for the perfect theatre for their mice to take the spotlight, whether they're putting on a grand production or simply peeking out from behind the curtain.

Why we love the Le Toy Van Puppet Theatre:

• A stage for every story. With draw-back curtains, a ticket booth, and a chalkboard showtime board, it invites open-ended storytelling, role play, and hours of imaginative performances.
• A stage for any star. Perfect for finger puppets, Maileg mice, small stuffies, or whatever characters your child dreams up — a favourite among Maileg collectors, and a hit with everyone else too.
• Two scenes in one. Flip it around for a magical night-time star theme, doubling the play and the ambience.
• Beautifully detailed. Sophisticated gold-painted accents give it a timeless, keepsake charm that looks lovely left out on display.
• Thoughtfully made. All wooden parts are crafted from FSC™-certified wood, and any fabric is GOTS-certified cotton.

What can you use with a puppet theatre?
Finger puppets, hand puppets, small figures, Maileg mice, and little stuffies all work beautifully. Half the fun is that children can cast whatever characters they like in the starring role.

What are the benefits of puppet play for kids?
Puppet play builds language, confidence, storytelling, and social and emotional skills, giving children a joyful, screen-free way to act out stories and find their voice.

Does the puppet theatre fold away for storage?
It sits neatly on a tabletop and makes a lovely display piece, so it can stay out as part of the room or be tucked away between shows.

Raise the curtain, gather your cast, and let the first show begin — the stage is set for a lifetime of stories.
