Nothing puts a smile on my face like live theater. I am 100% happy when I am caught up in a musical or play! So I’ve always hoped that my kids would enjoy seeing shows and that it would be something fun we could experience together. In January, The Princess and the Frog was playing at the 24th Street Theatre by Runaway Stage Productions. I thought it sounded like a good one for both my daughter and my son and figured that they were now old enough to sit through the show and enjoy. Plus, admission is only $5.00 per person for Storybook Theatre! You cannnot beat that deal. I also happened to have a 2 for 1 coupon from the Entertainment Book and so it only cost $10.00 for all three of us to attend.
The show was so cute and Runaway Stage Productions puts a humorous spin on their stories. They also included audience participation which made it even more fun for all the kids. They laughed through the entire show! At intermission, there were snacks and drinks available but we just went outside for some fresh air with the snacks we brought along. The production was completely geared towards kids and everyone seemed to have a great time. You can click here for their website and whenever they have a show playing, I have it on the Upcoming Events calendar to the right. Storybook Theatre productions are every other month. I definitely recommend checking out a show with your kids!

My love for exploring and creating experiences with my three kids led to the founding of SacramentoSidetracks.com in 2009. I realized that Sacramento has so much to offer and I was excited to share my findings with other parents. Besides simply having fun, these are the other positive side effects of taking my kids on outings that I’ve discovered: we have quality time together away from the distractions at home, we cultivate our curiosity, learn new things, conversations are triggered by what we see and do, we connect and bond as a family, and we create new memories. Ready to get sidetracked, too? Let me be your guide!
