show comes to NV

SINCE IT was first broadcast in
1971, thousands of youngsters
have entered the world of adven-
ture through the Polka Dot Door.

Learning through play is the
idea behind the travelling Polka
Dot Door live show, which comes
to Centennial Theatre on Nov. 26.

The popular Ontario T.V. show
combines games, stories, songs,
and a group of stuffed animals in
a lively half-an-hour format.

it encourages creativity, curios-
ity and imagination by drawing
children to become active par-
ticipants rather than passive
spectators, say show organizers.
. The four person show features
hosts Cindy Ceok and B.C.’s Tom
Rickert, guitarist Kevin Knelman
and the infamous Polkaroo.
Polkaroo’s friends — Humpty,
Dumpty, Marigold, Bear and
Story Time Mouse — will also be
there.

POLKAROO AND friends from the well-known Ontario T.V. series,
Poika Dot Door show, are coming to North Vancouver on Nov.26 at
the Centennial Theatre. The children’s show has gained popularity
since it began in 197 i.
