For the sixth year running we've been lucky enough to be part of the Kids in the Park program for kids ages 8 to 11 (they're a bit flexible with the ages and both my kids started at 7). This year Pippi was too old to be in the show, but she was still involved as one of the helpers backstage.
The show was Mary Poppins and Harry had the unusual role of Al Gore. What can I say, this is an adaptation of the original.
The program runs for two weeks, rain or shine. On the first Monday they have auditions and on the last Friday they put on a forty-five minute show with songs, dances and lots of fun.
During the two weeks they have "music class" and "dance class" and "arts and crafts" where they put together costumes and props.
They even have a talent show so all the kids can showcase their unique talents.
So today we watched Mary Poppins and now I have this uncontrollable urge to fly a kite. I wonder why?
