What does the moon taste like?

 Our weekly trip to the theater

Our trip the "El teatro de las Sensaciones"


We live in a small city in Castilla La Mancha in Spain, called Ciudad Real. Here, we are lucky enough to have a small local theater.  

On a Sunday they put on shows for children, and last Sunday it was the production of ¿A que sabe la Luna? What does the moon taste like?

It turns out that Lyon, had apparently heard this story several times, unbeknownst to me!

Mummy and Lyon
The actress had several puppets made out of paper macheé, which she used to tell the story. So, what does the moon taste like? I hear you ask. Well you'll have to read the book to find out!

We met up with Flor and Naiara, and Lyon's face lit up when he saw them and wanted to sit beside them. After the show they played together, which was very sweet indeed.

Our Snow Ball adventure

A trip to the theater with Lyon, Clark, Sara and Mum

It was a wet and rainy afternoon, in the centre of Norwich. Lyon and I had arrived that very same morning from Málaga. My sister  and mum, had kindly booked us some tickets to see a wintery themed children's show. Hosted by one lady, this was an event not to be missed!

Meet Clark (5) and Lyon (2)

Now, I was a tiny bit skeptical, as Lyon has had a the tendency to walk out of the theater, just as a production starts. He's not found of loud voices (Who is?) However on this occasion he was drawn to it. I dare say because his big cousin had taken a seat in a prime position!

The idea was that you sat in a snow globe and joined the story teller on an adventure! Across a frozen lake, through a snow storm, and many other funny anecdotes. There was also a puppet big foot, who played hide and seek with the children.

We all had fun, mums and dads included!
