Dora the Explorer (and friends) felt finger puppets

The cast of Dora the Explorer in felt finger puppet form, handmade by Joanne Rich.


One day, I was asked by a friend to make a set of Dora the Explorer finger puppets for her twin girls. Feeling up to the challenge, I said "Sure!"

For research, I began watching a lot of Dora the Explorer online. She asked me to make Dora, Diego, Swiper, Backpack, and Boots. They were so much fun to make that I added Map, Isa, and Benny to the collection! Here are the close-ups of the finished finger puppets:
