Puppet show description: Children from tots to teens and their families will cheer on, laugh with, help out the puppets as they learn the lessons of each fable. The stories are presented with lots of fun, laughs, audience participation. The Tortoise shows the rewards of exercise, healthy eating, and fitness tips along with the lesson “slow and steady wins the race”. The Bear and the Beehive teaches “when you stick together, you are strong”, and The Fox and the Well teaches “A helping hand is worth more than pitying words”. Call for details: 603-315-3083.
Accompanying workshop available: Participants will create their own rod puppet racers to take home - a tortoise and a hare. Each participant will have the opportunity to present a short skit/description of their puppets and how they keep healthy and fit. Lots of fun participaton, and follow up on what they have learned about health and fitness from the puppet show, and they get to keep their puppets and a reminder for healthy habits too!
