Famous Czech marionette Babinka from Spejbl & Hurvinek puppet theater

Everyone in the Czech Republic knows Spejbl and Hurvínek! But many popular scenes would not do without their loved ones - the dog Zeryk, Manicka and Babinka :) One of the most famous Czech puppets, Mrs. Katerina (or Babinka) is the grandmother of Manicka. They live together in the same house as Hurvinek and Spejbl and are friends with each other. Kind and smiling, full of human wisdom, which she communicates with kindness and humor. But if Hurvinek and Manicka deserve it, she can also be strict. That she used to be a teacher will not be denied :)

An easy-to-use puppet that even children can play with. But be careful, the head is cast in plaster, so the smallest ones could damage the puppet. However, this does not detract from her authenticity

My marionette-making workshop was the most fun I had during my visit to Prague! Everyone at Czech Marionettes was incredibly welcoming and encouraging. Lucy helped me to put the puppet together while another artist helped me to mix the paint. I love how it turned out! I wanted to do something different yet quintessentially Czech while I was here and this was the perfect choice! If you like arts and crafts and friendly people, you’ll enjoy this workshop. Sadly marionette theater performances are disappearing from Prague. But the talented people who carry on the traditions and artistic crafts are still here and they will gladly introduce you to this wonderful tradition.

Amazing! This little fellow is crafted with skill, love, and whimsy. I have several of the marionettes and each and everyone is a work of art. Can’t recommend enough; adore!
