The Nutcracker Tea Party

Emmaline has been taking dance for two years now at Dance Arts. Every year, Ms Martha puts on a performance of the Nutcracker for the little ones. It is an interactive production where they get to dance during the performance. After it is over she has a tea party for them. We got up and got Emmaline all dressed up in her pretty Christmas dress and headed on over. She was "super duper excited" (her words).

Emmaline and her little friend from her class.

They have them sit on the floor in front while they perform......

Then they would call them up to dance. Later on in the production they were teaching them how to do some of the more simple dances. Emmaline loved it!!!

Once it was over, they headed into one of the other studios that had been all set up for their tea party. I think Emma was more excited to drink out of a real teacup than she was about the cupcake!

All in all, it was a wonderful morning and I look forward to doing this with her again next year.
