Show is only 45 minutes so it’s great for little kids! And tickets start at $15!

We’ve never read the book and still loved it.

This was our second show at @childrenstheatrecompany and they always do such a great job! Incredibly kid friendly with things to do before and after the show.

Refreshments and snacks are available.

The manual cinema was so interesting to watch come to life - I enjoyed it just as much if not more than our daughter!

Here’s the details!

@skybrothersparagliding is doing ice boat rides this winter on Lake Minnetonka in Wayzata! This might just be the coolest winter sport.

Book a 30 minute slot via @skybrothersparagliding Instagram. They will send you details on where to meet and what to wear. They have extra gear in case you need some!

I wore winter boots, snowpants, layers, wind resistant winter jacket, insulated gloves, hand warmers, neck/face gaiter, ski helmet, and ski goggles. You will need it all - trust me!

The ride is like a go kart on the ice. You go fast and the windchill will get you if you don’t have the proper gear!

Have fun!
