    Add Review/Comment

    Children of Hangzhou: Connecting with China presents four children from Hangzhou at home, at school, in the library, in the theater, and in the countryside. Visit “Wu Lin Men Apartments” and learn to cook a birthday meal. Join in a performance of “White Snake Lady” or play traditional instruments at the “Yellow Dragon Theater.” Try the abacus at “Bao Chu Ta Middle School.” Help plant rice seedlings at “Huang Tian Fan Village,” and more. Visitors will discover that Chinese life today mixes ancient traditions with modern lifestyles, and that life in China is both similar to and different from life in North America.

        I went with my sister and my 3 nephews to see the Raytones at the CDM last year (still known as the Baby Blue Blues Band then), and we had a total blast! The boys were 2, 4 and 6 at the time and each were entranced by the great sound, the funny lyrics, the dancing, bubbles, balloons, and of course Ray! The 2 year old requested "Boo's Band" whenever he wanted to listen to music, and the 4 & 6 year olds remembered a lot of the words after listening to the CD. Great experience! Collapse
