We purchased premium tickets. The tickets were a bit overpriced in my opinion. And I think all the kids should be given a chance to meet a puppet regardless of the type of ticket they purchased....BUT that aside...my son (19 months) loved every minute of it. He was clapping and yelling the names of the puppets and totally engaged. It was fun to see him light up. Overall I would do it again!
The show was enjoyed by our 16 month old daughter. She recognized the animals from Brown Bear and The Very Hungry Caterpillar and enjoyed watching them move around on stage.
Wonderful show - beautifully executed. I would go again!
This “puppet” show was bare bones when it could’ve been so much more. There is virtually no scenery and 3 actors waving stick puppets around. Children 5 and under will like it but any older will probably be bored. When it’s done your child will want a caterpillar priced at $25 to round out your pocket emptying adventure.
It was adorable! So glad I took my grandchildren:) Their ages: 6 & 3
We took our 4 year old daughter, and 2 year old son (who never sits still) to this event and they were both mesmerized. Our son was in heaven - shouting out every animal, character, object that came on stage and my daughter had a grin on her face throughout the entire show. Perfect length as well, about 50 minutes, for kids that age. Well worth the money and whatever effort it takes you to get there!!
My children enjoyed the play. It was very nice. But the price is a bit too much and I missed having booster seats for the children. We were on the last row and with the adults in front of us, my children could not see and both of them ended up on my lap. So, basically, we paid for three seats and used only one.
My & my friend's toddlers found the show riveting, captivating and fun. It was just under an hour and a perfect length for my 2.5 yr old. He talked about hungry caterpillar excitedly for days after... As a parent I wish they didn't push selling toys down our throats (when you walk in, first thing your kiddos see is an abundance of toys they immediately want). I brought his The Hungry Caterpillar book with us and was able to distract him. So unless you want a $25 toy, bring one from home. We didn't get VIP tickets and were asked to leave right after the main portion of the show while staff member named people who bought additional package and asked them to stay - so I cannot comment on after show portion.
My family of four attended this show about a week ago. We have a 5 1/2 year old girl and a 1 1/2 year old boy. They both loved the show. Our son's reaction to the show was priceless - worth every cent. His face lit up every time a new character/puppet came on stage. The characters/puppets were both brightly colored and expressive. We sat way in the back and were still able to enjoy the show. Would definitely recommend this show to parents bringing their young ones to enjoy theatre in NYC.
Great show, a little long in the middle but kids loved it. Puppets were large and easy to see from the back.
My 2 year old loved the show and so did I!! It was so simple and captivating and had my little one "hooked" the entire show! Highly recomend taking your little ones to see the show! Eric Carle's books come to life!! Amazing!!
This was such a great show! My three year old loved it and my 14 month old was riveted! Great experience!
This show is delightful and perfect for toddlers. even my four-month-old granddaughter was riveted. They hit all the right notes for preschool kids. And the second my three-year-old grandson saw the stage he said “this is so much fun.” Go!
This I sent a great show! The puppets are beautiful and the music is complementary. Eric Carle’s favorite stories are brought to life in a magical way. My children loved it.
We took our 3 1/2 year old grandson to this show and it was a delight for both him and us. The venue was a small theatre so that everyone has a great view. Upon entering, there was a coloring station for the children to color caterpillars and butterflies. The puppetry was amazing and the best part for us, as grandparents, was to see the joy in our grandson's face and to watch him participate in the recitation of familiar stories. He was entranced from beginning to end.
Such an amazing show! Not only my 2-year-old son enjoyed it, our entire family loved every minute of it. Worth every penny!
My 2.5 year old (and myself) absolutely loved the show! His eyes lit up each time he saw and recognized a character from the book. He was captivated the entire hour!
Play was ok and kept my four year old's attention. However, at the end they made an announcement that the kids could line up to take pictures with the catapillar. My son got all excited so we went down there -- plus they mentioned a few times there would be time for pic at the end of the play. Of course, when we get there they basically yelled at us and told us you needed to be a VIP to take a picture. We weren't vips (didn't even know it was an option) so the puppets left and my son and a bunch of other kids started crying. I get if they want to make more money with a VIP program, but don't get 4 year olds all excited and kick them out for reason they don't understand. It could've been handled much better and kinda ruined the whole experience.
Great show for toddlers and young kids. Length of the show was just right. The kids were really excited to ask questions and talk to the puppeteers after the show. Would go again. Great family event.
Delightful! We went last year and my 3-year old loved it both times.
