A BRIGHT SUNNY DAY
Having wished everyone a Happy Easter, I am delighted to see the warm sun and, hopefully, the real end of that long, long winter.
Last time, I spoke about the environment and our ecological production "Robin Hood Rescues the Forest".
This time, I have what I consider an equally, if not more important message, and that is safety for the young ones.
Much play is made over "elf & safety", but generally it is for adults and workplaces. Our message is about the nursery and infant age range; kids who have yet to recognise the perils lurking in the home, garden, parks and streets, because they are essentially too young.
Our play "Billy Beware!" highlights the dangererous situations that abound. We demonstrate in a fun-filled friendly manner what can befall you if you are not careful. Hazards in the kitchen, dangerous ponds, thorny bushes, kites getting caught in trees, just to name a few. We even have a dog "Woofer" to help children with the highway code when crossing the road.
Demand for this production is really taking off this year. I suppose concern over the effect Covid had on children's development and socialising has sparked it.
Until next time, I will leave you with some illustrations from "Billy"
Take care, Albert....
