why are string puppets harder to make &use than finger puppets?

Answer 1

I think they are harder because you don't have entire control over the string puppet, like wind can move it, and the strings can get tangled up.

Answer 2

Harder to use because you have to make everything balance well, or it will throw it off.

Answer 3

In addition -- string puppets have full bodies, are jointed, and clothed.
