(No doubling was done) We know how happy a toy is when it belongs to a little boy or girl-- but what happens to a toy before that? It lives in Toy Land, where all toys are kept until they're given to a child. Nothing goes together like kids and toys--especially this time of the year. But you've never met a sillier bunch of toys than these. SETTING: Time: Night before Christmas Place: The Land of Toys on the night before Christmas. This is where toys are kept until they are wanted by a child. Jack in the Box is setting, ever-present, somewhere prominent, perhaps UCR or UCL. As far as colors go, I would suggest VERY colorful. Perhaps the ultimate kids playroom. OR, you may elect to go with subdued colors for the set and let the characters be the major bright colors. Doesn’t matter to me as long as the show itself is colorful, bright and fun. MUSIC: #1 Toy Land March - Instrumental Educational Study Guide Available |
