Jack's Beanstalk May 18, 2011

Revisit this fairy tale favorite. We'll act out Jack's adventures. After reading the story together we'll dig and plant in the garden and learn how beans grow so tall and so fast. Are our bean seeds Magic? Will our beanstalk climb up to the sky? We'll visit the barns to meet our milking cow, and the poultry house in search of a hen who lays "golden" eggs. Make your own golden egg to bring home using a natural dye. - - For up to three children per adult. Fees apply to all participants, both adults and children.
