We plan for The National Child’s Day Celebration to include:
At the Third Street Promenade, Santa Monica, California featuring music, dance, arts, crafts and horsepower through all the ages.
Timescope - The Early Eons is an extremely interactive historical timeline featuring the development of music/dance, arts/crafts and horsepower/transportation during the Antiquities.
Included will be:
Chariots
Limbo contests
Stilt walking contests
camel, elephant, pony and donkey rides, hay/coach/carriage rides, and
other historical equestrian appearances such as
Medieval Jousters, horse-drawn trolleys, etc.
music and dance performances,
art and craft demonstrations,
hourly scavenger hunts,
cave people,
and much more
Children and their parents will try out together dances, musical instruments, art projects and crafts. Our goal is to encourage family togetherness and solidarity on National Child’s Day, in a setting that is fun, exciting, creative and educational! We plan to make related educational materials and presentations by our performers and artists available to local schools and child/youth groups. For the first three years we will focus on specific historical eras. Eventually, we will combine all the historical eras into a very large event.
