The theme of this paper is the role of a puppet in early English learning, with the goal to show the benefits which the puppet brings when being used by kindergarten educators in their work, as well as to show its ways and purposes when it's being used and played with by children of early and pre-school age. Starting in early age, a child is emotionally attached to its puppet. The first puppet, a dear toy, in that age is the child’s connection with its mother and the only safe haven in a new and unknown surrounding. During the child’s kindergarten age, the puppet still has a “safe haven” role but slowly it becomes a toy. In early English learning puppet is a valuable didactic tool and aid that encourages children's speech, enriching the child's vocabulary with new words and terms, also encourages communication and communication skills of children in English. Playing with puppets fosters the development of facial expressions, coordination and motor control in general. Group games with puppets help the child to create a positive image about itself, activates the child’s ability to cooperate with its peers and it strengthens the child’s self-esteem. All of that a puppet can say, sing or dance affects the development of creative thinking and imagination. Children learn naturally, spontaneously, exploring their surroundings and adopting what they are offered through the various situations that arise. This is the most appropriate situational approach to learning, which enables a child to learn, know and understand English in a variety of activities and situations.
