Skallywaggle Tails: Precious Prayer

Handling the challenges life hands you requires connection with God and people through prayer. This program nurtures children in the development of prayer, agility of improvisation in life and in music, with an interactive story that is compelling.  The program engages each child to actually pray to help the characters in their quest, in addition the child learns to create music, sing and dance to assist the story’s characters.  The child touches a prayer icon within the program and is guided in prayer, the child touches a piano icon and learns the melody of a Skallywaggle song on the built in keyboard, the child touches another icon for a song video – these are just a few of the unique interactions woven into the wonderful Skallywaggle story. This unique program must be experienced to be fully appreciated.
