PlaySoup currently offers two unique and exciting character education programs for elementary children K-6. We use age appropriate music and language in our programs, and we can provide an optional question and answer session after the program.

Program 1: "Choose To Cruise/Choose to Lose"
THEME:
Our choices determine whether we succeed or fail. Making the right choices in friends, habits, influences, and boundaries make all the difference.
SYNOPSIS:
Join the mischievous Milo as he enters the "Choo-choo Choose-a-boratory." Through a series of questions, Milo gets to see what happens when good and bad choices are played out to the end. This program includes blacklight puppetry, video segments and participatory object lessons that show how making the right choice helps us succeed. 30-45 minutes in length.


Program 2: "Believe In the Power of Doing the Right Thing "
THEME:
Being a person of integrity means doing the right thing.
SYNOPSIS:
Join Milo as he travels back to 1928 and the exciting days of barnstorming and daredevil pilots like "Ace Armstrong and His Flying Circus." Milo takes flying lessons at Beacon Field, and soon learns there's more to being a pilot than just wanting to fly. He learns the power of using the right words, and how important doing the right thing is when you're in control. This program includes blacklight puppetry, fun songs and audience participation. 45-60 minutes
