Bat Finger Puppet

Flap-flap! Who’s that hanging upside down and ready to play? It’s the Bat – your tiny, twilight finger puppet friend! Small, sneaky, and full of personality, this little bat may be quiet during the day, but at night... it’s storytime!

In Aboriginal Australian Dreamtime stories, bats are often clever, brave, or cheeky characters. They might bring important lessons about sharing, problem-solving, or the balance between light and dark. In some First Nations languages, bats have special names too – like "Yinarlingi" (in the Yanyuwa language from the Northern Territory) or "Ngamaru" (used in some Noongar stories from Western Australia). These names reflect how deeply connected bats are to Country, culture, and story.

Slip this soft bat on your finger and let it flutter through adventures, flap into Dreamtime tales, or simply hang out with your other puppet pals. Whether it’s flying through caves, exploring the stars, or helping tell a story, this bat is always ready for fun!
