			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h4>MISSION</h4>
<p>To foster creativity, broaden imaginations and make learning fun.  We specialize in creating art-based, educational programs for kids.  We believe any subject can be taught using creative arts and that a  hands-on, minds-on experience is the best way to learn.</p>
<h4>OUR SHOWS</h4>
<ul>
<li><strong>Personalized Show: Your Theme Here</strong> &#8211;  We will create an original, one-of-a-kind puppet show based on your kid&#8217;s interests.</li>
<li><strong>Birthday Colors </strong> &#8211;   This personalized show includes musical numbers based on your child&#8217;s favorite colors.</li>
<li><strong>Primary Colors</strong> &#8211;  This entertaining, musical show focuses on the primary colors and the many places they can be found.</li>
<li><strong>Secondary Colors</strong> &#8211;  Learn how to mix primary colors to create all the colors in the world.</li>
<li>Colors Combo  -  Mix and match your favorite colors.  Choose from Red, Yellow, Blue, white, black, orange, purple, green, pink, gray and brown.</li>
<li><strong>Safety Kid</strong> (full production price will vary.)  -  Kids learn important facts about personal safety and how to protect themselves in the event of an emergency.</li>
<li><strong>The Firehouse Five  - </strong>Learn how to be safe in the event of a fire!  The most important aspects of fire safety are set to catchy, easy to remember tunes in this interactive puppet show.  Our program has been approved by the NJ Fire Department and has been saving lives since 1992.  We will happily include follow-up activities.  CDs are also available for purchase.</li>
</ul>
