Measurable Outcome(s)

A sample of comments from attendees are: The Wonder Weavers were creative and engaging for the children! I saw many children enjoying both their stage performances as well as the mask making materials in their booth area. It's fun to see children have a chance to be able to explore their imagination and see others telling stories in this way. I think many children don't have a chance to see this side of stories and books very often.

The Wonder Weavers captivate the imaginations of the children as they weave tales from beloved books. Their props, their energy, and their delightful sense of humor keep children engaged and laughing out loud. We loved the wonder weavers and want them back every year.

My kids saw the Wonder weavers at their daycare and begged to go see them again at this event. They had a great way of including the children in the stories and the kids stayed for a long time at the art table with them as well.
