MOCAKIDS Storytime at Home: What’s in a Name?
May 26, 2022, 4:00 pm – 4:45 pm
What’s in a name? A special meaning, a powerful history, and a beautiful story. All names are unique and your name was chosen J-U-S-T F-O-R Y-O-U. In Thao by Thao Lam and Alma and How She Got Her Name by Juana Martinez-Neal, we will follow characters in their journey to discover the importance of their names and the stories that their names tell. For this MOCAKIDS Storytime, please bring an item that shows off your name!
MOCAKIDS Storytime is free to the public. To join, simply register here! Please note that this workshop will be recorded via Zoom and available on Facebook Live for one week.
MAKE: Write and decorate an acrostic poem to celebrate your name!
SING: Download this week’s songs and sing along with us!
MOCAKIDS Storytime is supported, in part, by public funds from the New York City Department of Cultural Affairs, in partnership with the City Council; by the New York State Council on the Arts with the support of Governor Kathy Hochul and the New York State Legislature; and by an award from the National Endowment for the Arts.
