I get oodles of emails every week from children’s musicians sending me links to songs and videos to sample and, potentially, write about here on OWTK. Just this morning I clicked on the new music video from Birdie Mendoza’s Birdie’s Playhouse and the Mouse, who was chillin’ in bed playing […]
OWTK is extremely proud to support the recently launched Hand Aid organization as we too feel that puppets are due equal rights under state and federal laws.
