Pre-language fun for those under 3 years with their
parents or caregivers.
In today's world, it can be difficult to find programs that parents can enjoy
as much as their very young children. Finding this in a live performance can be
even harder. Papa Joe's Infant Toddler sessions provide such program support
and flexibility that you'll never find it easier to succeed. From the first call
to the final curtain, we're there for you.
For the Children:
Papa Joe's Pre-language program is a 20-minute interactive session for
children under 3 to go to with a parents or caregiver. The repetition of movements and sounds
built into the stories strengthen early vocabulary and increase creative
curiosity in the very young. With incredible sensitivity, he probes their
individual personalities and weaves their favorite things into the show. Even
the most reserved children find him hard to resist and many are fast friends
before the program is done.
For the Parents:
Not only are the children who attend learning and having fun, but so are the
adults. Papa Joe builds structure for intimate quality times. Emulation is easy
because the parents have already been practicing - during the show. The stories
and games are quick-learn types so parents are able to "do-it-again" long
after the program ends.
