'Hoagy's Heroes' are uniquely suited for talking with kids because:

each 'Hoagy's Heroes' puppet has their own "child specific" "talk-specialty".
each 'Hoagy's Heroes' puppet can also just have a non-specific conversation with a child(ren).
each 'Hoagy's Heroes' puppet will consider special, (unassigned topics), conversation requests.

Parents and guardians can pick a puppet:

then choose from that puppet's assigned topics...the topic(s) they want the puppet/puppeteer to discuss with their child(ren)
or just let the puppet/puppeteer decide topics from their assigned specific topics to discuss with the child(ren).
or request that the puppet/puppeteer discuss a topic(s) other than what the puppet is "assigned".
