How do we get to Turó Park, and is there parking?

Several bus lines stop within a five-minute walk; they're listed under Getting there. Street parking is tight in this residential neighborhood, so the bus is easier.

What ages does it suit?

Ages 3 to 7, when kids still enjoy puppet shows and simple stories about birthdays. Toddlers may get restless, and kids already reading chapter books may find it young.

How long should we plan to stay?

Arrive 10 to 15 minutes early to get a good spot. Stay longer if the kids want to play in the park afterward.

Are there bathrooms at Turó Park?

There is usually a bathroom at the small cafe in Turó Park, though this is often closed when the cafe is not yet open.

What language is the show in?

Catalan. The story is told through the puppets' action, so kids who don't speak Catalan or Spanish can still follow it.

About

Rita wakes up on her birthday full of excitement and rushes to find all the animals and relatives living with her, hoping they'll give her something special. But each one has a surprising answer that's not quite what she expects. It's a puppet story that suits preschoolers and kids in the first years of primary school.
