We Are in a Play!

After an awesome two week Mo Willems author study, the kids were pumped to see "We Are in a Play!" based on the adventures of the hilarious Elephant and Piggie. If you've never read a Mo Willems book with your child, I highly encourage you to do so! He is seriously entertaining for both kids and adults. If you haven't already, please ask your child about the play; it was awesome! You can ask: who did you like more: Piggie, or Elephant? Why? Which song was your favorite? Which part made you laugh the hardest?

Here are some pictures I snapped quickly as we walked in:

The firsties were amazed by all the intriguing displays around ImaginOn, the theater's venue. ImaginOn is a library, theater, and engaging play center; I wish we could have stayed longer!

This giant hanging sculpture really wowed the kiddos!

The set was simple, yet super dazzling with the sparkling curtain! 

Sadly, I couldn't take pictures during the performance, but luckily, pictures of our class are cuter than even the most adorable play! :) I think their faces capture their excitement perfectly:

What a fun, enriching experience to watch a musical based on books by one of our favorite authors! Our spring field trip sure has a lot to live up to now!
