Old McDonald and the Three Pigs Plus?
2:00pm - 3:00pm
Price: £5
‘Old McDonald and the Three Pigs Plus…’ weaves the well-known story of the Three Pigs with the easy to learn rhyme Old McDonald Had A Farm. Featuring a 5m wide book with 2m pop ups, bright colourful pages and lots of silly animal props.
The Three Pigs are fed up with singing “Eee aye eee aye oh!” every day and bravely decide to move away from Old McDonald’s farm. Join the kind farmer and all of their animal friends in helping the little pigs build homes of their own, but beware, the big bad Wolf is on the prowl. Can you help save the day and stop the wolf blowing all the pigs hard work away?
A colourful and fun interactive show, full of props, pop ups and audience participation! The children help identify farm produce, sing and take part as the animals on the farm.
This show is ideal for literacy topics including rhyming, traditional tales and retelling stories. It’s ideal for PSHE and science topics such as healthy eating as children have to identify fruits and vegetables, harvest food from fields in the farm and learn about animals living on the farm (and even some not found on a farm!).
Running time: 45 minutes
Age Guidance: 4 - 8 years
