Jump around!

Jumping Jiminey! It’s the Jumpin’ Juniper Festival at the Brooklyn Arts Exchange.

Juniper used to just be known as, well, Juniper. But then something happened — she began jumping around, earning her new name!

Jumpin’ Juniper and a treasure trove of special guests will delight your child during an interactive hour of story, song, film, and dance.

The interactive, high-activity performances, which invites kids onto the circular stage, start at 11 am. Don’t worry about getting tuckered out, as there is a play room nearby where kids and caregivers can take a break from all the jumping and jamming — and then return to the show!

Suzi Shelton visits Juniper on Feb. 5; Jamal Jackson Dance Company hops by on Feb. 12; Spellbound Theater puts on a an original production of “Wink” on Feb. 19; and Lloyd Miller of the Deedle Deedle Dees closes the festival on Feb. 26.

Tickets for all performances are $7 for adults., free for children under 12. The playroom remains open to 1 pm on all dates.
