The Wally Wise Guy Mini Safety Tour
Students love to see Wally Wise Guy, a huge turtle, as he dances around the stage instructing Sally on what to do during a chemical emergency. This tour also has a learning guide that can be used in the classroom for further teacher instruction. Wally tours in the fall to East Baton Rouge, Ascension, and St. James’ parishes.
