Alice's Adventure

Alice's Christmas Adventure
Almost all kids and even adults enjoy reading or watching "Alice in Wonderland." At my kids' school, Alice had a Christmas adventure. They presented "Alice's Christmas Adventure" as part of their Christmas program celebration. Students performed Christmas dance numbers on stage. It's a program where a story is told and lessons are learned in an enjoyable way.

I'm proud that my daughter, Skylah, actively participated on this program. She even choreographed the flower dance number for the Grade 1 girls. She's also a stage flower and had a small acting part with Alice.

My son, Brent, sang Jingle Bells together with the preschool students who are all dressed as little Santa Claus.

My youngest sister, together with the Grade 4 girls students, enjoyed dancing the song, Jingle Bell Rock.

It's wonderful to see Alice in Wonderland characters together with the Disney characters and Santa Claus. There's Roger Rabbit, Cheshire Cat, Caterpillar, Mad Hatter, March Hare, Queen of Hearts, Tweedle Dee and Tweedle Dum. From Disney, there's Mickey Mouse, Minnie Mouse and Tinkerbell.

Synopsis:

Alice is the daughter of two Disney executives who, being busy with work, aren't able to spend quality time with their daughter.

The irony: the parents are working for the Disney empire, that's supposed to make children around the world happy; Alice is the ultimate exception. As a form of rebellion, Alice makes a nuisance of herself by neglecting her studies and ignoring her private tutor.

On the night before Christmas, Alice falls asleep and dreams about entering Carol's Wonderland and meeting his characters being portrayed by Disney toons.

Alice chases Roger Rabbit. The chase leads to the Kingdom of the Queen of Hearts. Upon meeting her Royal Heartlessness, Alice sees her as a reflection of her own personality - bossy and demanding.

Immediately, Roger Rabbit appears, carrying a heart. he attaches it unto the magic wand of Tinkerbell who then turns the queen from bad to good.

Alice wakes up and realizes the error of her ways. She says sorry to her tutor. With patience and understanding, the tutor accepts her apology. The surrogate mother and child spend Christmas Eve together.

@ceemee, I don't think there is. the story is just based on Alice's Adventure in Wonderland, but since it's Christmas the school incorporated Disney characters and the spirit of Christmas :)

@w0rkingAth0mE, thanks and I'm happy they're enjoying every school activity

@mymommyconfessions, thanks so much!
