3-Stage-with-3kids.jpg


Kids love to dress up and put on shows. Instead of making your son or daughter the next miserable child actor, why not use their talents to help charities?

With the Super Star Theater, you can encourage your children to embrace their creativity and put on a play, dance, or comedy routine while you record it. The footage doesn't just sit among the stacks of family videos; you get to share it and have viewers contribute to the charity of your choice.

For $170 you can get the Super Start Theater Deluxe Edition, which gives you a full stage, complete with a dressing room, a backstage entrance, a ticket booth with cast photo frames and a show time clock, a refreshment stand with treat and price pockets, a wipe-off marquee, and 20 accessories for the big show. The stage also converts into a puppet theater. It's only 60-inches high, meaning there's no way the parents will fit inside. The parent's job is to record the show.

Once the performance is captured on camera, the parent can put the video online by going to the Super Star Theater Web site, and uploading the video. The video can be up to five minutes long.

Then, the parent can send it to family and friends with a note asking to help donate to a chosen cause. The child and parent can choose whatever cause they'd like to work for--it can be an already established organization like Big Brothers Big Sisters, or you can create your own fundraiser for your child's school, soccer team, church, etc. Supporters can securely pay online.

What better way to encourage philanthropy and creativity at an early age? Super Star Theater will definitely help your child spend less time in front of the TV, and more time using their imagination.
