Designed to nurture their creativity and love for storytelling, each session brings a beloved children’s book to life through the art of puppetry.
This month’s feature story is Giraffe’s Can’t Dance by Giles Andreae
About Giraffe’s Can’t Dance:
Gerald the giraffe longs to join the Jungle Dance, but his knees are far too crooked and his legs are rather thin. With a little encouragement from a wise friend, he discovers that everyone can move when they find the right music. This heartwarming classic is a colourful celebration of self-confidence and finding your own unique rhythm.
