Once Upon a Forest's Twisted Tales

My very talented cousin Caitlin and I ran a singing, dancing, and acting camp this summer. It was 4 weeks, three days aweek, and we had 30 kids ages 4 to 10, but most of them were 4 and 5 year olds. Caitlin wrote a cute little musical titled "Once Upon a Forest's Twisted Tales." Pretty much Little Red Riding Hood meets Mr. Mick (the big bad wolf but she doesn't know it) on her way to grandma's house. Along the way they meet all these different fairytale characters; Three Little Pigs, The Ugly Duckling, The White Rabbit, Little Bo Peep, a King, Thumblelina, Teddy Bears, and some Glowworms. In the end we all find out that The Big Bad Wolf isn't really that bad. It was a crazy four weeks and a ton of work. More work then teaching a classroom of first graders. But in the end it was all worth it, as the show was a hit. It was so stinking cute it made me want to cry. The kids were hilarious. The little boys I nanny for were actually the hit of the show. Mason (5) was the White Rabbit and had a solo, and Rowan (2) was Joe Worm and stole the show. I am a proud Nanny! A big shout out goes to my Aunt Cheryl who did all the costumes (2 for every child) and my other Aunt Shauna who did all the set design and to my husband Jake, who built the bleachers the kids sat on from free wood off craigslist
