Bookmans News

This last Saturday, January 20th, Bookmans in Flagstaff hosted a giant kids party at the Orpheum Theater to celebrate the continuing success of the Music in the Classroom (MIC) program, which brings great music and movement education to all the local Head Start classrooms. We had originally planned to host the MIC party at our store, but after the roof collapse, the Orpheum Theater came to our rescue, offering a new space to host our party! Chuck Cheesman, our MIC instructor, and children’s author and musician Matthew Henry Hall provided music and story time entertainment, while Wild West Entertainment’s balloon sculptor and face-painter worked-up a sweat decorating all the little ones with musical pictures and huge balloon hats!

 

There were free snacks and drinks, and every child was given a free MIC program tee-shirt or I Love Bookmans tee. Our friends at the Orpheum Theater estimated that at least 100 people were in attendance at any given time, and there was lots of adorable dancing and singing-along! Learn more about Chuck Cheesman at Dancing With No Shoes On.

 

 

 

If you have kids and you live in Flagstaff, don’t forget to attend our free Dr. Seuss Birthday Party next Saturday afternoon, January 27th at 1:30pm in the downtown public library. We’ll have Seuss story time, great give-aways, hat-making and more!

 

Here are a few snapshots from our fabulous MIC party! For more photos and videos, check out our Flickr page>.
