The Woodlands Children’s Museum Devotes Day to Summer Silliness
It’s almost time to stock up on school supplies and load up the backpacks. But before children shift into the back-to-school mode, theyll have a chance to devote at least one more day to pure summer fun.
Thats the idea behind The Woodlands Children’s Museums annual Shake Your Summer Sillies Out, a day of live entertainment, games, face painting, snacks and art projects.
KSBJ FM-89.3 will add to this years excitement by doing a live broadcast from the museum.
The celebration is set for 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Friday, August 11, at the museum, 4775 W. Panther Creek Drive, Suite 280.
”Many parents have special memories of their childhood summer vacations,” Angela Colton, Executive Director of the museum, said. ”We want to help families give their children a wonderful summer memory of their own: a final summer hurrah full of laughter, silliness and fun.”
With special memories in mind, the museum has lined up a photo opportunity for guests during Shake Your Summer Sillies Out. Children will have a chance to pose with capuchin monkeys known for their small size and baby faces and a tiger cub.
Also that day, children will be able to play on the Houston Rockets inflatable basketball game.
The entertainment line-up during Shake Your Summer Sillies Out will include Straws the Clowns magic show for children. Straws, whos been a clown since 1988, has performed at countless birthday parties, churches, day care centers, public schools, company picnics and community events and also teaches others how to be a clown. His shows are scheduled for 10:30 to 10:50 a.m., 11 to 11:20 a.m. and 11:40 a.m. to noon.
Brock McRock, a former U.S. Air Guitar regional champion, will invite children to rock out with him from 12:10 to 12:30 and 1:10 to 1:30 p.m.
Noah Mauldin, known for his balancing juggling tricks, has appeared twice on America’s Got Talent. He will perform from 12:40 to 1 p.m., 2:10 to 2:30 p.m. and 3 to 3:20 p.m.
