Seagull Hand Puppet

Squawk, squawk! Meet the Seagull, your cheeky new puppet pal who loves beachside adventures and big, noisy tales! With flappy wings and a beady eye for fun, this seagull is always ready to swoop into storytime.

In Aboriginal Australian culture, seagulls aren’t just beach birds—they can be important messengers and characters in Dreamtime stories, especially in coastal communities. They remind us of the rhythm of the tides, the power of the ocean, and the importance of sharing and balance.

In the Yugambeh language of Southeast Queensland, the seagull is called “Mibunn” (pronounced mih-boon). In some stories, Mibunn is a totem animal, representing family connections, respect for Country, and a deep relationship with the sea and sky.

This puppet brings the spirit of the sea to life, perfect for storytelling, puppet shows, or just squawking around the house. Whether you're exploring the Dreaming or pretending to fly over the waves, this seagull is ready to glide into your imagination!
