The Okee Dokee Brothers
Preschoolers and their caregivers will learn more about areas in the United States as well as the folk music genre. Attendees will learn to appreciate the outdoors and other areas of the country and learn that people in other areas may do things differently, listen to other types of music and enjoy one another's company. Anecdotal responses will be collected.
