/ˈsɒk pʌpɪtri//ˈsɑːk pʌpɪtri/

The term "sock puppetry" refers to a type of puppetry in which puppets are operated by persons concealing their presence behind a screen, cloth, or other form of cover. The puppet's body is typically constructed with a sock made of cloth, though other materials may be used. This type of puppetry has been popular since the early 20th century, particularly in children's television programs, and has become a commonly recognized term due to its unique and charming nature, as well as its association with the use of socks as a puppet body. Its name is derived from the use of socks as a material for the puppet's body, which resembles the hand-held glove puppets in appearance and operation. Sock puppetry has gained popularity as a form of entertainment and education because it can encourage creativity, build self-confidence, and foster the development of speech and language skills in children.
