A Cultural Collaboration Between Connecting The Dots Through Culture and Tara Treasures. 

Meet Waru the Sea Turtle, a soft and expressive hand puppet designed to bring storytime, puppet shows, and ocean adventures to life. With detailed stitching, a textured shell, and gentle eyes, Waru is ready to swim through the seas of your child’s imagination.

The Waru Hand Puppet is part of a special duo representing two beloved animals deeply rooted in Torres Strait Islander culture. Through these puppets, children and adults alike are invited to explore traditional stories, respect for sea life, and the enduring wisdom of First Nations knowledge.

With its textured shell and gentle features, Waru the Sea Turtle is perfect for storytelling, puppet shows, and educational play centred around marine life and cultural understanding. Each puppet is handcrafted with care from New Zealand wool.
