The Max Cure Foundation has commissioned Unplugged on a Rug to create an interactive fable of how Max, a 4 year old lion cub, learns to be brave. The story and program were inspired by advice from a doctor to Dave Plotkin, Dad to real-life Max, during treatment to fight a rare form of cancer;

“You must teach Max to be brave.”

Unplugged on Rug has created a program that fills Kidville with an exciting boot-camp style fitness challenge using Danish-designed bObles Tumbling Animals, live percussion, cardboard boxes and other recycled play materials that the group is known for.

Families will paint a keepsake canvas to remind them of their adventure, and create one as a community to hang in the pediatric unit of Memorial Sloan Kettering. There is a “Baby Adventure Space” for the littlest players featuring fitness play for baby and mom and live music, for all ages to dance and play along with recycled instruments to close the celebration.

Families will enjoy the adventure knowing that 100% of the net proceeds of this event support the foundation and it’s goals to build a cellular therapy lab at Memorial Sloan Kettering. 50% of the program fee is tax deductable making it a good deed, a good time and a great deal.  And to top it off, all of this fabulous family fun will benefit kids battling cancer.
