"We had a fantastic experience with Chris’s puppet show! It was perfectly age-appropriate for our young learners—fun, engaging, and full of energy. The children absolutely loved the unique characters, lively storytelling, and playful use of hand puppets. The songs and interactive moments kept everyone involved and laughing the whole way through.
A standout moment was when each child had the opportunity to engage personally with the hand puppets at the end of the show. It added such a special and memorable touch. The show supported imagination, language skills, and social connection in such a joyful way."

"Elk Puppets came to run a session at our school... The children loved it! Chris Elkington was very engaging and held the full attention for nearly an hour. The Puppets and Ventriloquism was fantastic. Will definitely book again!"

'It was with great anticipation that the Inverloch Playgroup and Inverloch Library Rhyme Time session awaited the return of ELK Puppets after last year's successful session. Elk Puppets caters beautifully for toddlers by singing songs such as Twinkle Twinkle Little Star and Head Shoulders, Knees and Toes with Puppets. The children enjoyed moving to the music and with the Puppets. The story included in the presentation was also engaging and appropriate. Being a Christmas story made it perfect for the time of year they were booked. We would highly recommend ELK Puppets to preschool groups.',

"LL Cranbourne had the pleasure of attending “Elk Puppets” recently, and I must say it was a delightful experience! Chris showcased exceptional skill and creativity. Each puppet was intricately designed and moved with such expressiveness that it truly felt like they were alive. The synchronization between the puppets and his performance was impressive, especially during the more dynamic scenes. His storyline was engaging and well-paced, capturing the attention of the children. Children were laughing and gasping in delight, and the occasional group participation moments kept everyone engaged.
Overall, “ Elk Puppets” was a captivating experience. It combined artistry, humour, and valuable lessons in a way that left a lasting impression. I would highly recommend this show..."

We booked Elk puppets to come to our end of year Christmas family service. All ages absolutely loved it! The puppets, audience engagement and storytelling were fantastic and Chris has a very natural, warm manner which comes across in his interactions and presentation. Chris is very passionate, gifted and professional and we look forward to Elk puppets next visit.'
