Even though the rain washes him out, Eensy always climbs that spout again. Now that's determination! Imaginations on Overdrive Crank it up!! The Annies crank up their imaginations, before they sing. The imagination crank is located to the side of the cranium and should be used daily to maintain optimum power. Sea Creatures Take a Spin Weeeeeeeeee! Salty, shimmering sea creatures enjoy a ride on the Under the Sea Carousel. Pictured here are C.

Widget Finds Widgeteer Kids and Widgets ~ a great combination! The Annies had a great time performing at The Early Education Services annual BBQ at Brattlboro Memorial Park, Brattleboro VT. At the end of the show, scores of tiny colorful Widgets* found some great kids to dance with. The Widgets loved it so much that each one went home with their very own kid. What a happy ending for all!! * Widgets for Digits are a breed of finger puppet native to Annies Shows.
