Family craft recipe

Performing on stage tickles the imagination and boosts children’s (and grown-up’s!) self-confidence, while acting out roles and stories improves language skills and cognitive thinking. When you play and perform with your kids, it also promotes togetherness and bonding – and you’ll make happy memories that will last a lifetime!

 

  • Create your own personalized stage curtain by painting a shower curtain. Let the kids be the set designers with MÅLA paint and pens, under the supervision of an adult.
  • Use a shower curtain tension rod to set up your stage curtain in a hallway or doorframe.
  • Draw back the curtain to perform the play of the week in front of an appreciative audience of guests or soft toys. When the play is over, take the curtain down and put it away until next week.

There’s no business like show business

When you’re a stage actor, it’s all about the curtain! Make it your own by painting a BJÄRSEN shower curtain with MÅLA paint. Use a BOTAREN shower curtain rod to place it in a hallway or doorframe.
