🎨Our special Artsy Buddies is coming up! The buddies will learn about puppetry and performance art!
The first part will be for all of you to use your creativity and imaginations to make your very own hand puppet! Then we will transition to The Buddy Batch Broadway Theatre and play pretend! Our theatre will have a ticket station and concessions with cash registers to "sell" tickets, snacks and waters with pretend money. Any buddy who would like to participate as talent in the show, may simply volunteer! All other buddies can just sit back and enjoy the show!!😃 We can't wait to see all of your unique creations and play pretend with you!
🎉Announcing our Buddy Batch Fall Festival 2023. There will be lots of fun carnival games, prizes, bounce house, treats, costume contest and more! Our buddies will have a blast!
