Entertainment:
something that amuses or interests
Entertainment Activity Book
The Buzzword partners designed this kit to inspire your family to keep learning together. We chose activities that build on your child’s natural curiosity, encouraging a growing vocabulary and a deeper engagement with books.
So, who’s ready to unbox the BUZZ!? First, read through Zuri Ray and the Backyard Bash, written by Tami Charles and illustrated by Sharon Sordo with your child. Then, go through the different activities and ideas together, taking time to explain the meaning of the words and connecting them to your child’s real-life experiences.

Ballet ENTERTAINMENT
In our story, Zuri and her friends perform steps from their ballet class to entertain friends and family. Did you know ballet vocabulary uses French language that also translates in English? Our friends at Pittsburgh Baller Theatre invite you to see if you can put some of these movements together to create your own dance.
Materials: picture cards, anything in your home that helps your final performance (costumes, a place to perform, or anything that inspires you!)
Step 1: Review each action on the picture cards and see how you can do that movement with your body.
Step 2: Shuffle the cards and lay three out on the floor in front of you.
Step 3: Put all three moves together in order to make a dance.
Step 4: Perform your three actions together as a dance for family and friends.
Step 5: Perform to the music from Swan Lake, just like Zuri and her friends in the story.
Step 6: Repeat the steps with different dance cards.
