HABA Doorway Puppet Theater - Space Saver with Adjustable Rod: Ideal for Pretend Play, Hand Puppets, Educational Kids Activities, & Toys for Toddlers

Grands love putting on shows and using their imagination.

This was for the 2 1/2 year old but my 7 year old got in on the fun too. The storage ease makes this the perfect choice for a house full of toys.

This puppet theater hangs in the doorway and is a cute item. The sides of the stage tie back. Nicely made. Was delivered in the box and was all beat up- not necessarily Amazon's fault.

We bought this theater unit to use with our 5 and 2.5 year old grandchildren when they come to visit. We liked the arrangement where the theater can be hung in a doorway, allowing for multiple locations and easy set-up and removal. This has worked very well, and the tension bar at the top is even adjustable to some extent for variable door widths, which as I recall was not emphasized in the product description. The theater is well-made and layout is well designed and colorful, an interesting, almost exotic architectural format. The features with the peak-hole opening at the top and plastic window for a sign at the bottom are great, as well as the tie-back curtains. It really provides a theater experience. We printed a sign with graphics and placed it in the window below, customizing the theater with a name that was meaningful to our grandkids. The only minor drawback was that, given the young age of our grandson and granddaughter, when they put on a show with the theater base just touching the floor the height of the stage was a bit high especially for the 2.5 year old. We addressed this by hanging the stage lower, not a big deal obviously. Our grandkids absolutely love the theater and the puppets, both having grandpa (whose has never done puppetry before) do shows or playing with the puppets themselves. What a great alternative to videos and noisy motorized toys! We are looking forward to many hours of fun with this theater.

Full disclosure, this is going under the tree and hasn’t been opened yet. But we got the box and I’m so pumped for our kids because it looks amazing. We do puppet shows behind a sheet all the time, and I can’t wait to put this up for the kids

This was a Christmas gift for our 5 year old granddaughter at the suggestion of her mother. We ordered separate hand puppets and our granddaughter had a great first experience with it in our kitchen doorway. As a retired teacher, I loved seeing the creative possibilities of the theater especially the oval in the front where the title of the play can be placed. Not only did she create her own play, she used cutting skills to cut the oval we traced and her writing skills to write the title of her play. What a wonderful learning experience for her!The colorful theater is made well using sturdy fabric. There's enough room for two puppeteers to collaborate on a play if there is a brother, sister or playmate. We couldn't have asked anything more of something so simple to provide the first of many hours of entertainment for her and her audience.

Y'all. Seriously. This thing is adorable. My four year old kept telling me she wanted a puppet theatre. And I kept wondering how I was going to pull that off. The Doorway Theatre-that's how! It is very simple to hang, comes with a tension rod built right in. You just twist the rod until it's snug against the wall and that's it! Easy peasy. There are also a couple of wooden dowel type deals in the middle and bottom that help weigh it down and keep it straight. It's very light weight, stores easily and is just plain cute. This has been used nonstop in our house since Christmas, and mostly by the teenagers and adults! Hooray for something fun for the whole family. Works perfectly with Melissa & Doug Princess PuppetMelissa & Doug Princess Puppet Just adorable.

We purchased this for my 3 year old and I just love it. The tension rod could be a little better - it can get knocked down pretty easily if you're not careful - but overall it's a great product. We live in a townhouse so we don't have space for a playroom or bulky pretend play items. This rolls up for simple storage and can make any doorway a theater. I recommended this to some friends and honestly to anyone. Great value for the price!
