Didi's Magic Keys: A Children's Play

The Children’s Pre-School Center and Palo Alto Community Child Care and are very proud to present Didi’s Magic Keys; A Children’s Play showing at the Cubberley Community Theatre on Saturday, December 5 at 10:00 a.m.

The Play teaches children from 3-8 yrs of age how to verbalize their emotions while giving parents relevant tools to use in communicating with their child during your day-to-day lives.

Didi’s Magic Keys is the story of a young boy who wants his mother’s attention and gets very angry when she is too busy to play with him. The impatient Didi embarks on an exciting and challenging journey to Magic Land, along with his friends Giraffe and Jackal, where he meets a variety of colorful characters that pile obstacles in his way to finding his mother. With the help of his friends, Didi learns the giraffe language or the language of the heart.

The Play teaches young children important skills to support them in working through their emotions and dealing with difficult situations. Highlighted skills include empathy, honesty, taking a breath to calm down, developing patience, and caring for others as well as oneself. Some of the core challenges covered in the play include working with anger toward a parent, dealing with the consequences of teasing others, connecting with people who seem angry or hostile, and developing patience and empathy in the face of adversity.
