Wonder Tales

For families with children ages 3–5 years

Wonder Tales is a new series of immersive story experiences where favorite books come to life through art, music, movement, and play. Each session blends crafts, role play, sensory activities, and sound to create a rich, interactive environment. Designed for all learning styles, this adventure lets kids and adults explore the story with their minds, bodies, and emotions. Whether building something from the tale, acting out characters, or feeling the world of the book through touch and sound—families don’t just listen to the story, they live it.

First in the Series: Wonder Tales: Where the Wild Things Are

Let the wild rumpus start! Bring your wild things—big and small—for a morning of joyful chaos inspired by Jewish author Maurice Sendak’s beloved classic, Where the Wild Things Are. We’ll roar our terrible roars, show our terrible claws, and dive into a world of imagination. As the story unfolds in a dynamic, participatory environment, families will create their own wild creature masks and bang the drums at our very own wild rumpus dance party led by family favorite performer, AJ Rubin—perfect for families with young children looking to let loose and have fun together.
