Chicago Children’s Theatre’s classes for students ages 4+ in Pre-K encourage young artists to embrace their innate imaginations and acquire basic performance skills through creative drama. In classes exploring creative drama, movement, and song, young artists build artistic and life-learning skills that will have them confidently expressing themselves and collaborating with others.

Bounce like a bunny, scamper like a mouse, or hoot like an owl as we play in the forest together. Through creative drama you and your little one will explore woodland creatures, discover the mysteries of the forest, and sing songs all while expanding social-emotional and motor skills, and building confidence expressing your creative sides as you play together. Each Sunday a different book will be read including stories from Beatrix Potter’s collection like Peter Rabbit! Sunday Story Jams will help develop your child’s fine and gross motor skills, early literacy, and blossoming creative spirit.
