Funshine Productions Children's Educational Plays |
| Back To Home Page |
Funshine’s dynamic musical plays, tour and interact with thousands of UK children every year, from Nursery through to Keystage 1 age groups. We provide educational facilities with innovative programmes and products to work with the National Curriculum and main government strategies for learning. Our pioneering plays make it fun for young children to explore a variety of important curriculum topics and then respond with their own lifestyle changes. The plays are written to appeal to this young age group that has the biggest potential to make the necessary changes early enough in their lives for it to make a difference. The company has full public liability insurance and the plays last from 30 to 45 minutes with a set up time of the same duration. If required, a short questions and answers session can be added at the end of the performance at no extra charge. All productions feature bright colourful eye catching scenery and costumes with original and professionally recorded music and songs. The shows are devised for a particular target audience, and great care is taken to ensure that both the content and style are appropriate for young audiences. Every child who sees the plays receives a free activity bookmark. We do not outsource our work and you are guaranteed the same high standard as we use the same two actors which enables us to keep our prices cost effective and very competitive. We tour across the whole of the UK. There are currently three plays to choose from: The award winning healthy lifestyle play: Let's Get Fit4Life, the Safety play: Be Safe, Be Smart or The Big Green Show.

BE SAFE—BE SMART—LET’S ALL PLAY OUR PART! This play covers topics ranging from Road & Fire Safety/ Not Talking To Strangers/Anti Bullying and ends with the inspirational song ‘Friends United’. Diversity, friendship and working together to look out for one another is the message this play promotes. The two actors combine all original songs with comical puppets to portray the important points in a stimulating way that children relate to. All the children leave the play with the powerful message that if everyone looks out for each other, they will all BE SAFE—BE SMART! | |

LET'S GET FIT4LIFE: This play won the British Gas sponsored Green Champion award for promoting healthy eating in schools. The show features all original songs with fun healthy food facts together with Chef Maurice and the Fit4Life Fruit 'n' Veg puppets who inspire young children to try healthier food options. With lots of participation from the children throughout, this is an ideal performance play to encourage children to think about the food they eat. | |

THE BIG GREEN SHOW features Gary the Gardener and Rose in a musical story set in Gary’s garden. Here with the help of Leaky the Watering Can, Wally the Worm and Tim the Recycling Bin they explain caring for the planet, learning to recycle, composting, saving water, and the benefits of growing a garden of healthy food to eat. Two popular songs from the play include: Recycle It! & Let’s All Save Our Planet. This play has been used extensively by schools in connection with Science week projects. Gary also has his own website which features free downloads and gardening tips, plus Gary’s first animated cartoon 'Gary & The Mystery of the Missing Carrots'. PLEASE NOTE: This production is larger than the current two plays and we only have limited availability for bookings during 2010, so please enquire for separate dates and cost. | | |
