Have you taken your child to see Old MacDonald's Farm at the Steven Stoli Playhouse? If you haven't, tomorrow is the last day it is showing.

2008

Kids are a funny bunch. They are often loath to change and anything new. But still, our little ones are open to so much -- and so much more than we more ossified parents are! Think of poetry: preschoolers happily read and repeat poems with ease and ...Read more >
