The KIDS ON THE BLOCK are a tightly knit group of lovable puppets who have been entertaining and educating young audiences all over the country for three decades. The troupe is comprised of puppets, with and without disabilities, who offer kids the opportunity to learn about specific disabilities, as well as broader themes of friendship community building, the importance of expressing feelings, celebrating differences, and encourages kids to ask questions about disabilities that they may be afraid to ask someone they meet in public.<\/p>\n
