Art in general and the puppet show, due to the interest and impact it has on the younger population, is a tool that promotes learning and stimulates creation among children through social interaction, as happened with the active participation of dozens of children who enjoyed the play Dreamcatchers with their families, the scenic proposal programmed by the Yaiza City Council that inaugurated the twenty-fifth edition of the Children and Family Conference with a full house last Friday in the main hall of the Benito Pérez Armas House of Culture in Yaiza.
The fantasy of the Bolina puppet company and its representation of Dreamcatchers captivated the attention of the audience in Yaiza from beginning to end. The combination of staging, interpretation, costumes, music and manipulation of the puppets, together with the dialogues participated by the children's audience, made the tale of Moonlight and the story of her visits to boys and girls at nightfall more than attractive, in order to share their trapped and collected dreams along their journey through space while the moon revolves around the Earth.
“The puppet show is a very fun cultural proposal for boys and girls, but it is also a playful and didactic resource that is increasingly recurrent in pedagogy, to which we wanted to give prominence in these twenty-five years of the Yaiza Children and Family Conference for the enjoyment and learning of our minors”, says the Councilor for Social Services of Yaiza, Karina Centeno.
Referring to the trajectory of the Yaiza Children and Family Conference, the mayor, Óscar Noda, maintains that “the well-being of our youngest population is the reason for being of a large part of the municipal management, so it is fair to highlight the tireless work of the Municipal Team for Minors and the entire Department of Social Services in favor of Children in Yaiza. It is a sensitive and silent job, a day-to-day job to protect our boys and girls and to disseminate and defend their rights and lend a hand to vulnerable people and families. To the entire Municipal Team for Minors, my gratitude as a resident of Yaiza and my gratitude as the highest authority of the City Council”.
Storytelling on Friday the 22nd in Playa Blanca
The Children and Family Conference has organized a tour of towns in the municipality and a new session of children's show with free admission is scheduled within its itinerary next Friday the 22nd, at 5:00 p.m., in the Playa Blanca Library.
This is the musical storytelling The Three Little Wolves, a classic of children's literature that the narrator Vicki Dos Santos and the musician Aarón Márquez bring to the stage in Playa Blanca. Storytelling enhances imagination and brings reading closer to children.
