Hey, parents!
In this edition, we’ve got the first performances as part of the Pies Inquietos Performing Arts Festival, a lullaby workshop, an Easter egg hunt charity event, a fantastic workshop on electricity (we went with friends over Samana Santa and loved it!), a puppet show/pop-up book performance, a family STEM activity, a sensory activity with food, a magic show from a world champion magician, a workshop on flowers, another on Dalí, and many more events worth getting out of the house for!

Raising tree huggers

A fun approach to history
If you haven’t seen this show, don’t walk, run! We saw Héctor Urién perform his Greek Myths show last year and loved how educational, interactive, original and fun it was; I highly recommend it
