One arm is free to move, it's just like a sleeve in the costume and the other is dummy connected to it via a small fishing line or wire, one arm moves one way the other arm moves the opposite. Again, same mechanic as Bear and the Big Blue House, who was also a Jim Henson puppet

Sesame Street, Between the Lions, and Bear and the Big Blue House were all puppets produced by the Jim Henson Workshop, and all amazing steps in child development and reading skills,

If he likes Sesame Street, turn him on to these when he's ready for them. Between the Lions is a step of learning above Sesame Street, reading full words and sentences and Bear and the Big Blue House is good about teaching basic life lessons, and understanding feelings, communication and basic concepts.
