CHURCH PROGRAMS

Drawing from a wide selection of characters, scripts and music, we are able to support your current educational goals in an entertaining manner and in a way that is sure to be remembered by kids and adults alike.

We strive to make a lasting impression with each presentation through the use of humor, lively music and a cleverly written script that includes a message that is meaningful and potentially life changing while remaining entertaining and fun.

Some past themes include:      "The Bible, A Story-Telling Book", "Give Thanks", "Love", 

                                                              "Faith", "The Best Christmas Gift Ever!"

                                            Co-operation/Working Together

                                                                               (Suitable for elementary K-5)

1. Ice Breaker Game -  We open with a participation game using four students to demonstrate the need to work together to accomplish a common goal.

2.  Non-Verbal Puppet Skit - This skit has no dialogue and portrays a runner heading for the finish line in a race until he is confronted with an obstacle.  He tries a variety of methods on his own, but to no avail  (lots of comic moments).  When he's at his wits end, a friend comes to his aid and together, they overcome the obstacle which enables him to finish the race.

3.  Review - We briefly discuss the non-verbal skit with the students to reinforce the message they just saw.  The discussion will also bridge to our final song.

4.  Puppet Song - A catchy upbeat song that reinforces working together to make the world a better place.  It involves one puppet, many props and animated scenery.
