Puppets can be a useful tool in facilitating conversations with children, giving children a voice, and changing the usual teacher/student dynamic. Without a voice of its own, the puppet may be far less threatening than an adult, encouraging children to share their thoughts and feelings and engage. Children may also be more comfortable engaging in conversations with an adult because the relationship has altered, and they are now engaging through the puppet. Puppets can serve to change the status of the teacher and make them approachable and fun. This may lead to changes in the children's motivation to speak as they are interested in talking to the puppet. The interactions that take place during puppet play have therefore been shown to develop the quality of the learning environment for children and educators, supporting relationships, playfulness and one that allows teachers to learn about the children and their strengths.

Artists working in a socially responsible and environmentally responsible studio create each Hansa animal from portraits of the creature in its natural habitat. Each animal is individually hand-sewn, to give it a unique personality.
