Puppets

These wooden hinged dolls are used with a board that is vibrated by hand. The puppets feet are standing on the board and as the board is twanging up and down it hits the feet and makes the puppets dance. They can be made to dance a rhythem which sounds like tap dancing or step dancing. It's a French Canadian folk art. I haven't a clue what they are really called
