🎁 A GREAT EXPERIENCIAL AND EDUCATIONAL GIFT FOR KIDS AGES 6–8
If you're tired of buying toys that get lost, ignored or mysteriously “disappear” under your couch by New Year’s… here’s a gift that actually lasts.
Broadway Kids gives children ages 6–8 a fun, confidence-building place to express themselves — whether they’re natural performers or the thoughtful, more reserved type who just needs the right environment to shine.
This class blends beginner singing, acting and movement into one exciting experience designed to help every child grow creatively and socially.
Kids learn:
✨ foundational vocal technique
✨ beginner acting & character work
✨ movement & musicality
✨ teamwork, listening skills & courage
And here’s the beautiful part:
Even kids who are quiet, serious or unsure about the spotlight often surprise themselves — discovering bravery, joy and creative freedom they didn’t know they had.
Throughout the session, students rehearse three musical numbers and two short scenes, all leading to a final performance for family and friends. It’s not just adorable (though it totally is) — it’s a celebration of their hard work, growth and confidence.
🎀 This holiday season, skip the clutter and give your child something meaningful — a place to belong, explore and shine.
Give them Broadway Kids.
Broadway Kids — Tuesdays 5–6pm • Begins March 10

Vision…. I have yet to hear any vision for our future from Ms. Gregory; only what has happened in the past. I didn’t hear her answer any of the questions posed in the town hall; only read from the script that has been with her during this entire campaign. Part-time? Really? We are made to believe that Jenny Gain-Meyer has only worked part-time during her tenure as city clerk? I can personally attest to Jenny’s tireless work ethic for our city both in AND out of the office. She also answered EVERY question posed at the town hall and has a clear vision for the future of Belleville.
The choice is clear.
