Preschool & Kindergarten

A highly engaging “hands-on” performance & workshop program for children Pre-K to grade 2. 

What happens a master storyteller performs Finger Fables?  Squiggly squirmers are taken into the tale by hand.  They get to turn their fingers into racing rabbits, lions and turtles and bears. (Oh My!) 

“Finger Fables” engage children to listen, follow along, and have fabulous fun. They learn kinetically to actively listen, retell, and reenact.  Studies prove storytelling improves retention, reading and writing.    Selections span Aesop to Anansi, the original spiderman! Ask for a selection from Margaret Wise Brown, or Leo Leoni. Look to make friends with “Barkface and Rootnose!”  

“Three” makes story magic for young children.  They’ll get to help tell each of these classics with their hands, faces, and voices.

Engaged three ways, they learn to listen.  They’ll better comprehend by retelling or re-enacting their favorite parts.  
The children get help drawing three big moments of the Bears, Billie Goats, or Pigs! 

Children turn their hands into animal characters to follow along with “The Sunny-Time Bunny,” an adventure based on a Margaret Wise Brown book. ”

Next, they help a little girl guess what animal could be the “purrfect’ pet. Sound effects and gestures help them identify animals and follow the tale.

We discover too how to stop losing things with “Little Bear’s Dancing Pants.”  

They’ll draw a picture of their favorite part of each story to make a “Take Home Tale” to share with their families.
