The longest running British sitcom was
called Last of
the Summer Wine. I guess parents of
little kids may think of that (whine) when it comes to the end of the seemingly
way too long summer break from school. For
those, it’s more like summer vacation and the livin’ ‘aint easy….when you’ve
got small kids.
Well, the good news is you can amuse
your kids at neighborhood parks thanks to City Parks
Foundation’s PuppetMobile. Performances
of The Big Good
Wolf are being shown today, tomorrow and Friday at the following
locations:
Marion Hopkinson Park, Bed-Stuy
– Wednesday, August 22 at 11am
Owl’s Head Park, Bay Ridge – Thursday, August 23 at 11am
South Oxford Park, Fort Greene – Friday, August 24 at 11am

This project and others like it is
park of the goal of City Parks Foundation to “transform NYC parks into vibrant
centers of urban life through sports, arts, community building and education
programs.”
Look out for details of similar events
as well as puppet-making workshops throughout NYC. Before you know it, the kids
will be back in school!
