Children's Festival

Hundreds of families stopped by the WHRO booth at the Virginia Children’s Festival in October.  Children had the opportunity to play our shapes and colors game where everyone’s a winner.  A free children’s book went to each child playing the game.  The children also got to see Arthur the Aardvark and have their picture taken with the Teletubbies.  A fun time was had by all!
