Educational value

The McDonald's Camp Quality puppet performance has been created to help inform and educate children about what it's like to live with cancer. It helps kids learn how to be more supportive and understanding of a classmate, friend or family member living with cancer.

The style of the show facilitates discussion and encourages children to ask questions after the show. Whether it is a child living with cancer who discusses how they feel about being at school, or a child who needs reassurance about the facts of cancer, the safe and secure environment created helps children discuss their concerns and emotions.
