Just for tweens
SCT's newest show is just right for kids ages 8 and older: A pair of sisters are sent to live with family while their mother recovers from the loss of their baby sister, and — after a rough start — find friendship and understanding in this sensitive adaptation of the Newbery Honor book Getting Near to Baby. $15-$34.

Stop Pampering me!
Literally! Deep-six the didies at the Pull-Ups Potty Dance Party. Grammy-nominated children’s musician Ralph Covert (otherwise known as "Ralph's World") has a new version of “The Potty Dance,” a song and dance that encourages potty training success.
