CREATIVE
KIDS I
is a dynamic and innovative
literature-based drama program.
A professional actor/teacher
leads the class in exploring
and dramatizing specially selected
children’s stories. The students
then create and act out their
own original stories based on
these books. The stories come
from all over the world and
are carefully chosen to be appropriate
for the ages in the class. CREATIVE
KIDS introduces students
to acting, increases their love
of books, and is loads of fun
– a perfect mix for a great
after-school program!

dramatizing a story.

In our Creative
Kids II program the students
get all the great basic acting training
and exposure to literature that Creative
Kids I offers (see above). Halfway
through the course, they focus on creating
their own original story based on one of
the books used during the session. They
then rehearse their “play” and share it
with family and friends in an informal presentation
on the last day of class. This class has
limited availability.

I knew my youngest daughter would like this
program and I was right, but I was surprised
how much my older son loved it. He tried
it for one week and begged me to sign him
up. They both loved your choice of books,
the parts they played, and their teacher.
We will see you in the fall.

My
child loves Creative Kids so much he refused
to go to his dentist appointment which we
accidentally scheduled on the day of class.
By the way, he loved playing the peddler
in “Caps
For Sale.” We have acted it out at home
at least 100 times.

It is a great program.
