Great stories for today's kids
experienced storytellers who've toured across Canada and into the USA
Residencies (3-day or 5-day)
Using one of our shows as a springboard we'll explore the themes of self-awareness, kindness, compassion and generosity with your students. We'll get your kids thinking about their own uniqueness, exploring strength through diversity, considering the importance of good choices and participating in the power of creative collaboration. Using games, group and individual challenges, storytelling, shadow puppetry and movement activities, we'll focus on imagining simple ways each student can make a difference in their world: at home, at school and in the community. Our residence will challenge students to come up with sustainable ideas and initiatives, to carry beyond our time in residency, that will have students excited about practical ways they can make a difference in the world around them.
In a faith based context, we'll use many of the activities listed above, but we'll also reinforce timeless truths from scripture that teach us how to approach life with a Biblical worldview.
Please call to discuss options (including number/length of sessions, age/size of groups, etc) and a residency package can be tailored for you.
Grade Suitability: K–8
Cost: Built to suit your school (starting at $5000 for 3 days)

Our standard workshop is designed to reinforce the themes of our show while giving students a chance to explore their creative side.

Our faith based workshop includes many of the same activities, but we connect the lessons learned to their scriptural context and explore ideas through the lens of a Biblical worldview.
