A little about this puzzle

A fox performs with a rabbit hand puppet on a small wooden stage inside a hollow tree. A rabbit wearing a paper crown, a bear and a hedgehog watch from separate stools. Red curtains, evergreen branches and a round rug create a cozy holiday theater. Find six objects: a hand puppet, handbell, drumstick, paper crown, clothespin and lantern. Designed with ages 4–6 in mind. - **color.png:** A fully colored puppet theater with a six-object picture key. - **lineart.png:** The same scene and object key in black outlines for searching and coloring. - **answer.png:** The six hidden objects and matching key icons are colored; the rest of the scene remains black and white. Choose the Color or Line art image, use the picture clues to find each object, and keep the Answer key separate until you are ready to check. The three images can be printed or saved as PDF using your browser.
