Newsletter from The Nutcracker Lady

Young children love nutcrackers too!!!

Yes, even the little ones love the Nutcracker Museum, and during Christmas Lighting the Nutcracker Lady had the pleasure of taking 3 of her great grandchildren on a tour of the museum. What fun that was!!! The Little Brother, just 2 years, loved the colorful nutcrackers and was so excited when he found Mickey Mouse and other familiar figures! Big Brother, at 5 years, had a hunt with pictures of nutcrackers as he does not yet read. Big Sister, at 7 years, started on a hunt designed for primary students, and later got reacquainted with Karl.

	Here the tour begins with the 2 year old taking the lead, holding tight to the Nutcracker Lady’s hand.

The museum has hunts for all ages, and even parents and grandparents enjoy the challenge of the hunts especially designed for them. Many young adults challenge their spouse or friends, and often need help to find a ‘Bear on a Sled’, a ‘Three Legged Man’, or a ‘Man with a Bird biting his Nose’.
