Piggy Nation The Musical
Now at Snapple Theater
NYC
In a time when it’s tough to find a child not carrying around some type of electrical 
device to play with. it was wonderful to stumble upon this Off  Broadway musical 
Piggy Nation: A Day At Work With Dad.
Piggy Nation, based on the book, both written by Richard Rosser entertained the audience filled with 
parents, grandparents and children. This musical features an original score filled with rock, blues, rap and
gospel influences that keeps the audience engaged throughout the musical.
Piggy Nation: A Day At Work With Dad lets your imagination take the lead as the 
actors gone animals lead us through a story that teaches children about values and helps 
parents and adults to see the importance of good role models. Lessons of thoughtfulness, 
honesty and courtesy are all highlighted during this a little over an hour musical.
 Although props are few, talent is abundant!
We had the amazing experience of meeting up with author, Richard Rosser, who could not have been 
any nicer. He spent time chatting with everyone and took the time to preview the book with my daughter before showtime. My son had a chance to interview him on his vlog: TheKingsVlogs

Should I Buy A Great Wolf Lodge Paw Pass?

by Leave a Comment

Should I Buy A Great Wolf Lodge Paw Pass?
Great Wolf Lodge is one of our family’s favorite resorts to visit.
Heading out of the city and into the Poconos, PA is always a welcome trip in our eyes.
We can escape to the cozy lodge and water park for endless hours of fun.
 Many of my friends also frequent Great Wolf Lodge.
One of the biggest questions they have been asking me is if they should
purchase the Paw Pass when they visit the Great Wolf Lodge. 
My answer of course, is always, Yes! 
We love the Paw Pass and your family will, too. 
First of all it’s a big savings vs. paying for individual activities. Secondly, 
I love that it gives you a little check list of things to do while visiting the lodge.
I also love that you can buy one Paw Pass and share it between 
your children if you choose! There is something for everyone on 
the Paw Pass and so worth the price ($67.22).

The Paw Pass includes:
  • One MagiQuest Game and Classic Wand or standard topper.
  • One Story Explorers Game
  • One stuffed animal at the GWL Creation Station and choice of outfit!
  • One Paw Points Games/Attractions Game card and 20 Paw Points(equals 20 tokens)
  • One Game of bowling at Ten Paw Alley (10am-6pm)
  • One 12 oz Kandy Kup to fill with candy of your choice from Buckhorn Exchange
Check out the pictures below of ALL the activities and items included in the Paw Pass!

I think you will have to agree with me that it is an awesome addition to your
 Great Wolf Lodge trip!
Ten Paw Alley Bowling (mini bowling balls).
This is SO much fun for all ages!
Kandy Kup fill up station where you can choose your favorite
candy at the Buckhorn Exchange.
Skee Ball is always a hit with Emily when we explore the
fun at Northern Lights Arcade.
Part of the Story Explorers is getting to make an amazing
personalized book to take home featuring your
 child and the new Story Explorer friend of their choice!
More Northern Lights Arcade fun!
Choosing a new wand or wand topper is always an awesome
experience and a fun part of MagiQuest!
It’s always fun to make a new friend at Creation
 Station for fun stuffing! Emily was thrilled to use the foot
 pump to help with the stuffing!

Giveaway and Review
 Ringling Bros and Barnum & Bailey
 Presents Built To Amaze

Recently we were invited to Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey’s Opening Night at 

Prudential Center, Newark, NJ. Our awesome night started with the All Access Pre Show Party (included with everyone’s ticket for free). I just love arriving one hour early and heading right down to the actual floor where the circus will take place. We had the chance to get an up close view of Asia (the elephant) paint right before our very eyes. The painting was later raffled off to a lucky audience member.

My daughter could not get enough of the clowns, tattoos, circus clothes testing and more.
My son loved the tall stilt walker!

If you are heading to the circus do not miss out on this fun time. Do your best to arrive one hour early, you will love it!

Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey presents the 143rd edition of their Greatest

Show On Earth. I’m sure everyone in the audience will be amazed! In a
typical Ringling Bros. style this show will be non-stop action and thrills to
keep us on the edge of our seats!
Children and adults alike will be in awe as they watch death defying
feats that only Ringling Bros. could perform.
From elephants to tigers we will watch in true amazement.

Of course we have a complete collection of Circus soviners .
This time my daughter loved the baby tiger in a purse. Adorable!
How could I say no?

Sesame Street Live :Elmo’s Super Heroes

by Leave a Comment

Sesame Street Live
Elmo’s Super Heroes
Recently our family was invited to
 Sesame Street Live at Madison Square Garden, NYC.
Being a Kids Club Thirteen Ambassador and a Sesame Place Ambassador Blogger
keeps me around these furry Sesame Street characters quite often.
We could not wait for the new show, Elmo’s Super Heroes!
Our day started by arriving an hour before show time to enjoy the 
Play Zone which is included free with your ticket. My daughter
loved getting an up close sing and dance along experience with some of her favorite 
Sesame Street characters. She also enjoyed sitting in big bird’s nest, dancing at 
Abby’s Dance Studio and visiting Mr. Hopper’s Store among the many other activities.
High Fiving Ernie during the Play Zone preshow.
As for the show, it was awesome as usual. If you have a little one, you definitely should
get to the Sesame Street Live show at least once during the magical years.
The price on children’s faces when they see the characters come out is just priceless.
We loved the theme of this show which featured the Fabulous Five as they try to help 
Super Grover get his Super-ness back!
Each Super Hero highlights a different healthy idea. Personally, I thought that Oscar’s segment was
hilarious as he claimed that it was the worst day of his life learning all about keeping teeth healthy!
My daughter loved how Abby Cadabby was called Glitter Girl! 
Sesame Street Live’s Elmo’s Super Heroes is a very high energy and interactive musical show.
You and your child will be singing and dancing along to all the fun!
If you have a chance to see any of the Sesame Street Live shows, don’t let it pass you by!
