The Gingerbread Man

Artist: Betty Lee Dell

Gingerbread3

The Gingerbread Man will run and run as fast as he can, and when children catch up with him they
will have learned lessons in literacy, math, social skills and body movement! Using Eric Kimmel’s version of the classic tale, Betty Dell adds farm animal puppets, movement activities, songs, and dramatic play to create a fun-filled learning experience for preschool-age children

Betty is a children’s theater performer and director, as well as a storyteller and puppeteer. She has a BFA in Theater from Point Park College, and a MS in Psychology in Education from the University of Pittsburgh.
