Ages 6 to 12. Learn how to create your own mini crankie theatre using a box, dowels and an illustrated scroll of paper. Have fun using it to share stories that move with your family and friends.
Registration opens on Saturday, June 1 at 12:00 pm. Supplies provided.
A crankie theatre is like a moving picture book. It consists of a box with two spools and an illustrated scroll of paper. The spools are ‘cranked’ or turned to move the illustrated scroll of paper through the box as the story is told.
