Creative Presentations That Teach And Inspire                



Meet Maureen Do you wonder what to give to loved ones when money's tight and you're torn how to divvy up what's left after bills? Years from now, people may not remember what you gave them this Christmas, but they may remember how you made them feel with your gift of time.

Many of you read the "Building Confidence" tips included in our November newsletter. One of the recommendations there was "one-minute kid time." This holiday season, I've prepared more information and ideas on how to give the gift of time--to kids and adults alike. Click here to view, download and share my "One-Minute Kid Time" handout.

I wish you all a very merry Christmas season filled with fun, family and friends, now and throughout the coming year!

Bloomin' Buddies CD A Memorable Gift
DVDs and CDs

Looking for a gift that will make a positive impact on the life of a young child? 

Order a DVD and/or CD of Bloomin' Buddies, our engaging musical clown show on the topic of making and being a friend. Children learn to find confidence and stand up to a bully; say no to gangs and drugs; how to calm down when angry and use kind words to solve problems, and finally, the importance of respecting differences and others' feelings. This will make a memorable gift for a child, and supplemental materials are available for the adults.
Philippines Flooding Upcoming Trip To The Philippines

On January 28, a troupe of Kaleidoscope Konnections clowns will leave to minister to those adversely affected by the flooding in the Philippines. We will touch lives in various settings: churches, hospitals, schools, barrios and orphanages. The goal is to spread bring hope, love and friendship through laughter, smiles and big red noses.

Please make a donation to our outreach trip.

OOCHEE In Lewiston A Warm Welcome In Lewiston, ID

While in Lewiston in November, I felt warmly embraced by many friends-and strangers. The community welcomed OOCHEE and me with open arms and warm hearts.

On top of this wonderful hospitality, the people gave generously to support our upcoming trip. Close to $2000 was raised!

Finally,  the local news station featured my clowning performance at the  25th Annual Festival of Trees.

A special thank you to all my new and dear "old" friends in Lewiston!
