The Summer Stage, held at the Changning Youth Palace, unfolds vibrantly from July 2nd to July 12th, hosting three distinct classes based on age groups. The youngest group joins the endearing "Little Bean Sprouts" class, the middle age group enrolls in the lively "Sunflowers" class, and the oldest age group partakes in the "Sky Stars" class.

Little Bean Sprouts

Over a span of five days, the "Little Bean Sprouts" class diligently explored a Chinese original musical play titled "Missing iPad." This engaging narrative centers around a magical iPad, leading a group of children on a thrilling quest to retrieve the lost device. Throughout their learning journey, the youngsters honed their skills in dialogue delivery and theatrical expressions while nurturing a sense of teamwork and stage courage. Their enthusiastic performance coupled with their charming demeanor, brought to life a joyful and captivating story for the audience.

In contrast, the "Sunflowers" class had the privilege of being mentored by Dr. Russell, a seasoned American expert in youth musical education. Under his tutelage, they delved into and rehearsed the English musical play "Peter Pan." Dr. Russell's expertise and enthusiasm significantly enhanced the children's musical performance abilities. They mastered singing delightful melodies in English and vividly portrayed the whimsical adventures of the Darling family with exaggerated movements and rich expressions.

Beyond musical learning, the children engaged in a variety of enjoyable activities daily. They participated in games, competitions, and artistic endeavors, creating cherished memories together. The meal times, featuring an assortment of cuisines for lunch and afternoon tea, were equally enjoyable as they exchanged stories and fostered a warm, harmonious camaraderie.

On the evening of July 6th, a colorful performance was staged by the "Little Bean Sprouts" and "Sunflowers" classes. Prior to the official presentation, a "sneak peek" of the musical selections from the "Starry Sky" class was shared. Parents eagerly gathered to witness the talents and expressions of their children on stage, leaving them in awe. The "Little Bean Sprouts" enchanted the audience with the amusing tale of "Missing iPad," while the "Sunflowers" class enchanted everyone with the dreamy realm of "Peter Pan."
