It's easy to make Pinocchio's nose grow! Lucky Star uses her wand to make Pinocchio's nose grow!  It's easy and always gets a laugh from the grownups!
Valley Center Stage, North Bend, WA

Look closely. Lucky Star, Blue Fairy's friend, carries a star wand with long wooden pole/handle.  When Pinocchio lies to the Blue Fairy, Lucky Star stands behind Pinocchio and places pole on his shoulder.  Another cast member uses a slide whistle to make "growing" sound.  It's simple, easy, and works like a charm!
