Where to buy puppets?

[mykidsmom]

Where can I find good quality and reasonably priced puppets. I am looking for both people and animal puppets for dd.
Thanks!

I got the Constructive Playthings catalogue, www.constplay.com, in the mail today and they had some full-bodied puppet families and a king/queen set that looked very nice. I haven't seen them in person, so I can't speak to the quality but the price seemed right. We have a couple of these puppets, http://www.folkmanis.com/View.html, and the quality is fantastic. DD really enjoys them.

I just saw a bunch in the Hearthsong catalog today.

We have a set of 6 Baby Einstein puppets that DS plays with all the time. I'm not sure where they're from though because they were a gift.

Costco has nice sets of puppets right now. They're 7.99 per set and each set comes with 4 puppets. There are a bunch of themes (maybe 6-8?) like jungle, dogs, bugs, etc. They're very detailed, soft, and look like great quality for the price. We got several sets and are planning on using the puppets as favors at DS's b-day party this weekend.
