Nobody likes to be singled out as being different growing up.
The puppets talked to the kids about various disabilities and what the disabilities mean to people that have them. Sheila Barrett, a Special Education pre-school teacher for the River Falls school district, saw the puppet show as an excellent way for the kids in the daycare to learn about the kids around them. At the end of the performance, the kids were given an opportunity to ask the puppets questions, as though it were a real person. Student teacher Katie Kitowski said that the show was a positive first step towards the kids treating disabled people as they would anyone else. And that it's okay to play with them and be friends.
