SEQUENCE OF STORY
Volunteers from the audience are used to depict 5 major cultures: African, Asian, European, Latino, & Native.
The volunteers demonstrate cultural aspects from each of the 5 regions: clothing, food, art, language, celebrations and music.
We discuss the differences between cultures, then the audience is asked to solve the riddle: "What makes the volunteers exactly the same?" (answer: they are all human beings)
IN CLOSING, the volunteers are dressed in native costumes and demonstrate percussion instruments, while the audience joins in with the rhythms.
Childrens' attention is held by the constant interaction with the facilitator, the extensive use of music, and familiar props (i.e. Giant Taco, Huge piece of Sushi)
"He held the attention of our 3 & 4 year old campers for 45 minutes. I consider that to be a real accomplishment."
