Noah’s Ark Workshop by Melanie is a great, personalized hands-on activity of making your own stuffed animals and combine it with some silly fun to make this birthday party one that your child (and your child’s friends) will always remember!
Each birthday party workshop is filled with the excitement of choosing a new cuddly friend (many quality animals to choose from), stuffing the new friend by hand, making the new friend come to life with the wishing star ceremony, and naming the new friend!
A birthday party workshop lasts approximately 45 to 60 minutes!
Also, because Noah’s Ark Animal Workshop by Melanie is a traveling Stuff-N-Fluff Workshop, it is easy and convenient to “set up shop” not only at home birthday parties, but also at preschools, child care centers, scouting troops, fundraisers, summer camps, children’s hospitals, and more!
There are also many great outfits and accessories available! There are also several different birthday party packages to fit various budgets.

“Birth”
Birth is part of the BOLD (Birth On Labor Day) Movement. Every September, Birth is performed in cities around the world, uniting women’s voices calling for change in a maternity-care system that is broken–
For example:
One in three women in America give birth by undergoing major abdominal surgery.
But there is a movement to promote a model of care that is evidence-based and centered on mothers and babies. It’s called “Mother-Friendly” Maternity Care. BirthNetwork NWA promotes this model of care through education, advocacy, and support. Please join with BirthNetwork NWA and BOLD to raise money, raise awareness, and raise the energy of a movement that will empower women take charge of their births and give them options that work.
Tickets are on sale now. Click here to access ticket sales through BirthNetwork’s “Events” page. Please don’t wait, because we do expect a “sell-out” of the play. Even if you can’t come, please consider becoming a consumer member of BirthNetwork NWA. Your name and your voice as a consumer means something, and we must have broad consumer support to encourage doctors and legislators to listen.
