<p style="margin:0in;margin-bottom:.0001pt"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"">I'm glad I just saw the post about Wildlife Safari, because it<br>
reminded me to post about a couple of wonderful programs we had this<br>
summer at Oak Park.<br>
<br>
Bob and Audrey Allison, aka The Storytellers<br>
(<a href="http://www.thestorytellers.org/">http://www.thestorytellers.org/</a>), were here to present a program on<br>
being an everyday hero. The program included music and stories, humor<br>
and laughter. Bob and Audrey played off each other and completely<br>
engaged the kids throughout. Each child was able to play one (or<br>
more!) of the unusual instruments they brought and a wonderful time<br>
was had by all. Kids and parents alike enjoyed themselves.<br>
<br>
We were also fortunate enough to win a grant that allowed us to have<br>
an absolutely fascinating two-hour program with Alexandria's Nature<br>
Bus from Howell's Nature Center<br>
(<a href="http://www.spiritofalexandria.org/index.php/alexandria-s-nature-bus">http://www.spiritofalexandria.org/index.php/alexandria-s-nature-bus</a>).<br>
The naturalists brought five birds of prey and presented a fabulous<br>
and fun program on them as well as had the kids explore the nature bus<br>
itself.<br>
