This heartwarming new musical is both all-inclusive and interactive. The songs follow a day in the life of a young child and are engaging for children and parents alike. The show brings to life Magical Music’s “A Day in the Life of a Child” album, its first album of songs developed with music therapists and other specialists for children with autism and special needs, as well as all children through elementary-school age.
Like Magical Music’s “The Adventures of Zak,” “Russell, the Hermit Crab” and “Two Little Snowflakes,” the show has fun lyrics and catchy tunes that both educate and entertain.
The show and music has been receiving rave reviews: “The performance was amazing! Your cast was spectacular. Our kids were mesmerized”(Program Director for Country Children’s Center); "Our children thoroughly enjoyed the show. The young performers in the cast made it such fun” (a mom at the library debut of the show); “The songs are really great. Very upbeat and especially the 'Just What I’m Feeling' song would be great for a social skills group for children” (a family therapist).
Karen Nisenson, founder /director of Arts For Healing, said of the music, “With clever lyrics and great melodies, these songs hold the Magic of Music in the way they bring important skills to every child.”
Tickets are $10 per person, and admission is free for children under the age of 5. Tickets can be purchased at New Canaan at Arts For Healing (24 Grove St.) and New Canaan Toy Store (94 Park St.), online at www.magicalmusic.org, and at the door.
