Fancy Nancy

We've read all of the books and today we saw the play.  A 45-minute production with lots of costume changes and lots of singing. The perfect mix to keep a 5-year-old entertained.  It was a girls-only outing; just Carmen and mom.  We don't do those often enough so it was a special time.

 

Show time!

Here is Nancy.

Carmen was super excited to meet her and tell her she had read all of the books.

But, shyness prevailed and she clung to my leg.

Instead of a picture with Nancy, I took Nancy's picture.

It was funny, Carmen was slightly confused that the actress playing Nancy wasn't actually Nancy from the book.  And, where was Frenchy the dog?  How come Bree didn't look like Bree from the book?  Lots and lots of questions. 

Despite question overload, she enjoyed the performance and looks forward to going back. 

I think she enjoyed playing at the playground and running through the water fountain after the show just as much as the show!  She's 5, what should I expect!?
