Along the way, audiences meet a delightful collection of characters, including Snail, who is determined to deliver the mail; the energetic Birds; and an ensemble of woodland friends including Squirrels, Mice, Turtles, Lizards, Moles, and more.
The show offers wonderful opportunities for young performers, with featured roles including Frog, Toad, Snail, the Birds, Mother Frog, Father Frog, Young Frog, Turtle, Lizard, Mouse, and Squirrels, as well as a lively ensemble that helps bring each season and adventure to life.
Featuring playful music, lovable characters, humor, and plenty of opportunities to sing, act, dance, and create, A Year with Frog and Toad KIDS celebrates friendship, kindness, patience, and appreciating what makes each person unique.
