It’s showtime! Simply hang the curtains and let your kids perform and entertain.
We all know some of those kids who love to perform. Skits, dances, gymnastics shows, choirs – they just love to shine in the spotlight. They practice and pull together just the right costumes and props. Maybe they even create backdrops.
Want to add some excitement and drama to their drama? Create a set of theater curtains and any doorway becomes their stage!
All it takes is a shower curtain tension rod (This one is good for smaller doorways and this one for larger doorways) and a set of lightweight curtain panels like these fabulous velvet ones or these more affordable ones. And when the standing ovation is over – simply slide the panels off the rod, fold them up and put them away until the next curtain call.
And how about some costumes? Pull out those Purim boxes and set up a little costume shop. This rolling rack has space at the bottom for the fabulous accessories they’ll need. (Want to get a few costumes to build a collection? Check out these ideas.)
Or maybe you can stash some puppets there. (Check out these mitzvah puppets!) This hanging puppet theater is also very convenient and easy to store.
The space to explore their creativity is one of the best gifts you can give a child. Now go pop some popcorn because you have lots of shows to watch! UPDATED 2024
oooooh. i love my brooklyn basement with its exposed pipes running along the ceiling. We have multiple sets of curtains. Sorry suburbanites – there are some perks to old NYC homes…
