She's back for her 5th season, and we could not be more thrilled! 🎭✨

Paola Miranda, actress, narrator, and playwright with the Denver Center for the Performing Arts, has been a beloved part of the Tiny Tots family for five series now. Colorado families know her warm, captivating storytelling, and many of you know her work from co-writing The Adventures of Juan Bobo, an English-Spanish bilingual touring kids' play that has reached elementary schools across the state.

We are so lucky to have her back guiding your little ones through the great outdoors this summer.

📅 July 11-19 | Four locations around metro Denver
