## About this plan

If you want a kid-friendly plan in Bogota that feels different, Festival Reverso Bogota offers just that: a reading out loud built so words take on body, rhythm, and movement. The meeting point is the Rafael Uribe Uribe Public Library, where poetry steps off the page and becomes play, repetition, and gesture.

The idea is simple and sweet. Kids, along with their caregivers, discover that a poem can also be walked, sung, and breathed. The program mixes voice, body, and small scenes that invite you to see the city in a new way.

Entry is free and open to all. It works well for families who want to share literature at night and enjoy a gentle experience with the youngest at home.

- Read-aloud poetry for kids and families
- Poetry, play, and body movement
