It was magical for dozens of pre-K and kindergarten-age children./wp-json/wp/v2/posts/178964/n

好色先生TV/wp-json/wp/v2/posts/178964/u2019s early childhood learning department put on Once Upon a Time last week at the PDC, a fairytale-themed event designed to encourage little learners and their families to read./wp-json/wp/v2/posts/178964/n

Many of the kids came dressed as princesses and princes /wp-json/wp/v2/posts/178964/u2013 or Spiderman /wp-json/wp/v2/posts/178964/u2013 and couldn/wp-json/wp/v2/posts/178964/u2019t believe their eyes when they saw Sleeping Beauty, Snow White, Belle and other characters from their favorite stories. Most posed with wide eyes for pictures with the princesses they thought were real before heading off to lots of fun activities./wp-json/wp/v2/posts/178964/n

/wp-json/wp/v2/posts/178964/"fairytaleThe activities were all storybook themed. In one room, Moore Elementary pre-K teacher Debbie Modawell read the story /wp-json/wp/v2/posts/178964/u201cThe Three Billy Goats Gruff/wp-json/wp/v2/posts/178964/u201d and helped the kids act it out with puppets. She even had a bridge for the billy goats to walk over./wp-json/wp/v2/posts/178964/n

/wp-json/wp/v2/posts/178964/u201cWho/wp-json/wp/v2/posts/178964/u2019s that trip trapping over my bridge,/wp-json/wp/v2/posts/178964/u201d said the little girl playing the troll./wp-json/wp/v2/posts/178964/n

/wp-json/wp/v2/posts/178964/u201cIt is I, the medium-sized goat,/wp-json/wp/v2/posts/178964/u201d answered the little girl who had just trip trapped over the bridge./wp-json/wp/v2/posts/178964/n

Modawell read the story over and over again during the event, each time for a different audience, but she loved it every time./wp-json/wp/v2/posts/178964/n

/wp-json/wp/v2/posts/178964/u201cIt/wp-json/wp/v2/posts/178964/u2019s my favorite story,/wp-json/wp/v2/posts/178964/u201d she said. /wp-json/wp/v2/posts/178964/u201cThe kids get to really get into it and be the troll and use the puppets. It brings them out of their shell and helps them make connections with literature./wp-json/wp/v2/posts/178964/u201d/wp-json/wp/v2/posts/178964/n

Making connections with literature was what the night was all about./wp-json/wp/v2/posts/178964/n

Nearby, boys and girls donned armor with foam shields and swords and acted out their own fairytale adventures. Others built castles with blocks and Legos./wp-json/wp/v2/posts/178964/n

All took home books and were inspired to read and dream. And everyone had a great time./wp-json/wp/v2/posts/178964/n

Even the big bad wolf (also known as early learning specialist Ken Foster)./wp-json/wp/v2/posts/178964/n
