(Ended) GIVEAWAY: Family 4-Pack of Tickets for Boats at Dallas Children’s Theater April 19th

Posted by My Dallas Mommy on Wednesday, April 10th, 2013 at 11:15 am

boats

If you’ve never seen a show at the Dallas Children’s Theater, you’re missing out! I saw King Arthur at the DCT last year and my kids and I LOVED it!

Boats, brought to you by Australia’s Terrapin Puppet Theatre,opens this Friday, April 19th and runs through April 21st, 2013 at the Dallas Children’s Theater. BOATS won the 2012 Helpmann Award for the Best Presentation for Children – the highest honor that a theater for young people can gain in Australia.

Here’s a brief synopsis of the show:

BOATS is a play about the life of a sailor called Jof Argos.  Jof’s story is told to us by his friend, and fellow seaman, Nic.  Together they recount Jof’s life from birth up until his final moments.  We learn how the friends met as they were each running away from something and then found that the sea answered their calls.  BOATS is full of clever storytelling techniques that span from the traditional to the highly inventive; puppets are tied from ropes, a boat is made from a table and many of the sound effects are made live. This follows a very Australian tradition of telling tall tales with found objects, and embellishing them for the sake of the story.  While the play is a wild ride following the ups and downs of two great characters, it is what Nic and Jof learn from each other, the sea and the retelling of these stories that leaves a lasting impression.

OPENING NIGHT PARTY
Attend the show on Friday, April 19th for extra fun one hour prior to the show and after.
Experience the power of stories and make a BOATS – inspired origami craft with instructors from Bishop Arts’ Oil and Cotton!  Enjoy coloring, face painting and more.   Giveaways and one free show poster per family.

GIVEAWAY: Best Gymnastics Birthday Party For Up to 20 Guests!

Posted by My Dallas Mommy on Monday, April 1st, 2013 at 10:00 am

My daughter is going to have her birthday party coming up at Best Gymnastics in April. She is SO excited! And, I’m excited to be able to giveaway away a birthday party for one of you for up to 20 guests! All you have to do is leave a comment below. A winner will be chosen on April 9th!

Meantime, here is what the birthday parties are like – Michelle did a review last summer!

 

My daughters had been talking non-stop about Best Gymnastics ever since they participated in a week-long camp there last summer.  They had the time of their life (especially swinging from the rope!)  This year, they wanted to have their birthday party at Best Gymnastics and after putting it off for a few weeks, I called to reserve. Waiting was a bad move on my part. Everyone is the area has caught on, and Best Gymnastics has become a VERY popular birthday party hot spot! Unfortunately for my girls, their party had to wait until 3 weeks after their actual birthday. Lesson learned. BOOK IN ADVANCE! And let me tell you, the party was worth the wait.

We arrived with minutes to spare before the party started (because that’s how we roll!) :) and there were three party attendants there to help us. They even came out to the car and helped us carry in the cooler, cake and goodie bags….and they took control from there. They asked us for the tablecloths, napkins, etc and they were in control of the party from that moment on, setting the table, organizing, and greeting the guests. They were AMAZING.

The energy level of our party hosts was one of the things that stood out the most for me personally. They create the excitement for the party and they did just that. The kids had so much fun jumping, swinging, running and playing games. They didn’t slow down until it was time for pizza and cake. (And yes, the kids slept very well that night!)

 

I loved that we could bring in our own food and drink. My husband ran out for 15 minutes and picked up some Little Caesars pizza for the kids. Or if you choose, Best Gymnastics can arrange to have pizza for your guests. When I say the party hosts took car of everything, I mean everything – even cleanup. They helped carry all the gifts out to my van, too! I was so impressed. I was already a fan of Best Gymnastics because of the cleanliness – I’m a little crazy when it comes to smells and germs (we won’t even go there…), but Best Gymnastics is clean, clean, clean. Did I say clean?

I highly recommend Best for birthday parties – but be forewarned….birthday party slots fill up quickly and there’s a reason for that – it’s a GREAT place to have a party!
