Thank you for bringing such a wonderful Sova Dance & Puppet Theater performance to our students. They were engaged, excited to participate, and had only positive things to say afterward.
My daughter and her friends even brought their butterfly puppets back to school the next day to play with at recess. It was a beautiful way to celebrate nature and inspire curiosity and appreciation for the world around them.
