A special thanks to all who attended and volunteered at The Current’s Rock the Cradle event presented by Children’s Minnesota! The (nearly) 10,000 kids and their grown-ups who attended the event at the Minneapolis Institute of Art and Children’s Theatre Company spent the day dancing, listening to music, making art and having fun.
See all the fun the kids had at the event through photos here.
Children’s Minnesota had activities at Rock the Cradle for the whole family!
- An arts coordinator and music therapists from Children’s Minnesota led reading, singing and art activities in the Children’s Minnesota Amazing Kid Zone.
- Kids danced with Twinkle, the Children’s Minnesota mascot, in the Kids’ Disco, and played with fun toys.
- Children’s had a giant wheel with great prizes.
