We are jumping into summer!

Go Wild, Wet and Wacky with the 
WonderWeavers - Storytellers!


Where can you splash in enormous puddles, meet a giant talking frog and a friendly sea serpent and even have some rub-a-dub-dub bathtime fun? The WonderWeavers - Storytellers bring Wild, Wet and Wacky stories to life. Tina and Colleen bring a menagerie of puppet friends and a few surprises to tell their tales. You won't be sitting for long as we leap, jump and sing. Who knows you might even get to see a fish fly ... and raincoats are not needed.

(Ask about our optional craft project to extend your program.)

Check out our website for more programs.
Call to schedule you summer fun!
