The entire Kids Corner crew celebrated the start of winter at the Schuylkill Center for Environmental Education on Thursday, December 22, 2011 - along with many fans of nature (and Kids Corner!). Joining Kathy were Joe Hilton, Dr. Lisa Chirlian, Jane Kirkland, Derrick Pitts, and the Center's Executive Director - and Kids Corner's All-Natural Science Guy, Mike Weilbacher!!



Over 800 people joined us for our second Kids Corner Music Festival - November 2011 at World Cafe Live at The Queen in Wilmington DE. We all were entertained by The Plants, Shine & The Moonbeams and Billy Kelly & The Blah Blah Blahs!



Spark was front and center at the XPoNential Music Festival this summer and inside the Kids Corner Garden! Check out his slideshow of memories below!



Spark was knee-deep in the crowd at our first Kids Corner Music Festival - in March 2011 - where over 500 people came out to see Princess Katie & Racer Steve, Elizabeth Mitchell, Key Wilde and Mr Clarke and The Deedle Deedle Dees at World Cafe Live in Philadelphia!
