Inspired by the traditional Puerto Rican folktale Juan Bobo and the Pig, this theater booklet invites children to discover the story through reading, dramatic play, and performance.

Designed for preschools, kindergarten classrooms, after-school programs, and children’s theater classes, this resource gives young learners opportunities to take on roles, speak in front of others, listen and respond to classmates, and bring a traditional story to life together.

Theater and dramatic play can support speech and oral language development, self-confidence, imagination, listening skills, and social interaction. The booklet also introduces children to children’s literature and Puerto Rican cultural heritage through an engaging, story-based experience.
