Hosted by Melek and Zac, stars of the Australian children’s book series “Hijabi Girl”, this colourful, exciting musical puppet variety stage show is for ages 5-9 and their families.

- A song about school playtime performed by two food puppets: a Turkish Kebab and a plate of Vietnamese Rice Paper Rolls.
- A song performed by Melek, a Turkish Muslim girl puppet who wears a hijab and wants to start her own all-girls Aussie Rules football team – and DOESN’T want to dress as Little Red Riding Hood in the Book Week Parade.
- A Sicilian language lesson, including a discussion about endangered languages.
- An AFL football puppet.
- A teacher rod puppet (large glasses).
- A song about how everyone has different interests and skills, performed by Tien, a Vietnamese girl puppet, with a chorus of singing pencil puppets.
