Rasa Dmuhovskiene "Little Ant Why-Why" a musical educational performance for children in two parts

“I want to know everything, I keep asking - why? Why does the sun shine? Why do we have to sleep at night, why does the Lizard have such a long tail, where does the Spider get such a long thread for its web, why does the Snail have only one foot, why, why, why?” These are just a few of the questions and forest dwellers that Little Ant Why-Why will encounter on an adventure discovering the forest and its inhabitants. Through story, songs, dances, and colorful costumes, we will explore nature together and find the answer to many, many whys!
