I am a gLeek... there I said it. But I missed it for a good reason. The Children’s Festival kicked off last night with Ache Brazil. They were fantastic. It is always amazing to watch artists at work, especially when they enjoy sharing their talents. Saskatoon is very lucky to have such a fantastic festival centered around children, that really is accessible to all. The site has changed a bit this year, as it is only on the south side of the Bessborough hotel, and they have added some fantastic new free attractions. You wouldn’t believe the cheer that went up in the red and white striped tent tonight when the audience was told of one of the new attractions this year... the interactive LEGO tent! The only downside to the festival is that it is traditional that the weather never cooperates. WHY WHY WHY does mother nature feel she has to rain on everyone’s parade, especially on something so fun for kids.
The children’s festival only comes once a year, so we will but on our rain jacket and rubber boots and head out as much as possible to have some kid friendly fun. I can always watch Glee when it is uploaded to Global TV’s website later this week.
My son saw a play today. He wants to go back on Saturday and see the Lego. Not sure if he understands the combination of Children's Festival and Saturday. YOu are right we are so lucky to have this event. Especially in years when there is a drought.
