The Magic of the Rainforest

What is the Rainforest?

Where is the Rainforest?

Why is it so important?

What's happening to it?

What can we do to help?

These questions and more will be answered during a fun filled 45 minutes of magic, music, puppets, and surprises. Just because we are not in Central America cutting down trees that are hundreds of years old doesn't mean we're not contributing to the destruction of the rainforest. Learn how your lifestyle can help or hurt the future of the rainforest.

Alan Skogerbo has combined his experience as a children's television producer, seasoned performer and years of living in the tropics exploring the Central American rainforests to create this interactive educational experience called The Magic of the Rainforest. Are you ready?

This show is designed for elementary schools and libraries.

The show is self contained, all you need to provide is the space and an outlet. Alan brings a backdrop, lighting and sound. Stages are great but it can be done in gyms and cafeterias. The show works best for groups up to 300. If you have more than 300, please consider a second show. They are offered at a reduced rate. Thirty minutes are needed to set up the show before the children enter the room and twenty minutes are needed for reset between shows if more than one show is planned.

The show is fast paced, colorful, fun and educational. It is nonviolent, nondiscriminatory, and the children are always treated with respect. A "Review & Resources" sheet will be made available to teachers who wish to follow up the show with a class discussion and a list of resources will be provided for those desiring further information.
