This special program celebrates the special springtime sights and sounds of frogs experienced at Georgie's Pond. The Audubon's Vernal Pools, Sova Dance & Puppet Theater’s “Frogs Make Me Hoppy” program is a highly engaging puppet-making workshop. Learn about frogs, their habitat, and how to bring unique creations and characters to life through the art of puppetry.

Participants will design their own puppets, learn how to use them, and read a story by the pond where they are likely to hear and see our amphibious friends. This storybook features frog songs from around the world, which families practice singing along with. This workshop ensures bellies full of laughter and fun. Each participant takes their own puppet home with them. 

This program is funded in part by The Puffin Foundation, Ltd.
